The name of my drug is steroids. Steroids affect the cardiovascular System by causing a heart attack in certain situations. Steroids can affect the nervous system by causing an increase in heart rate and BP, trembling, and anxiety. Steroids can affect the digestive System by inhibiting prostaglandin biosynthesis, thereby inhibiting the gastric alkaline response and producing severe gastric lesions. Steroids can affect the skeletal system by leading to bone loss, osteoporosis, and broken bones. Steroids affect the immune system by suppressing the immune system. Steroids affect the urinary system by protein leakage into the urine and severe reductions in kidney function. Steroids affect the reproductive system by in males, steroids can lead to impotence, reduced sperm production in the testicles, and even smaller testicle size. Females who use steroids may have problems with their menstrual cycles because steroids can disrupt the maturation and release of eggs from the ovaries. My drug belongs to one major class of lipids, which have structures totally different from the other classes of lipids. The main feature of steroids is the ring system of three cyclohexane's and one cyclopentane in a fused ring system as shown below. There are a variety of functional groups that may be attached. Treating a steroid addiction may involve supervised detox, comfort medication, and behavioral therapy. Medical professionals can monitor those addicted to steroids for depression and suicidal behavior during detox. Mental health counseling helps recovering addicts cope with mood swings during steroid withdrawal. In general, steroid hormones and their derivatives are well absorbed from aqueous solutions. Small intestinal absorption rate of the dissolved molecule is not crucial for determining potency by the oral route. Resistance to inactivation is essential for activity after administration per os.
