Growth Hormone Illegal
Growth Hormone Illegal For Off-label Anti-aging Use, Study Warns
And this is why the FDA needs to go away, or at least have it's powers greatly reduced. Something to the effect of "innocent until proven guilty" for the drug market. People should be allowed to use a substance unless it is shown to have extremely harmful effects, those can be regulated for specific uses (almost everything will have some use). Things like HGH have not been shown to be fatal in people, and if someone wants to roll their dice with this, they should be allowed to do so. This kind of regulation is killing the drug industry, as the FDA

1. can't keep up with the number of drugs currently coming onto the market
2. has no motiviation to approve new drugs, as they don't see any benefit by doing so
3. have every motiviation to endlessly delay drugs, because if they somehow approve something that might have some danger to some tiny fraction of people that use it, they run the risk of public backlash.
The free market will always work better than government regulations, always.
