A Texas resident has filed a lawsuit against TF Supplements, alleging he became jaundiced, suffered extreme pains in his side and suffered uncontrollable itching several weeks after taking P-Drol, a steroid precursor. It is marketed to fitness enthusiasts and weight lifters for its alleged muscle-building capabilities.
On July 28, 2009, the FDA issued a public health advisory warning stating that consumers should stop taking steroids marketed as dietary supplements and advised anyone who took the steroids and subsequently showed signs of liver problems to seek immediate medical attention.
