Actually, I don't think a lot of them are illegal. It's just against the rules to use them. HGH certainly isn't illegal. There may be some off-label uses of a lot of the drugs.
Someone in the state legislature earlier this session submitted a steroid testing bill for high school football programs. He sheepishly withdrew it when pressed on who was going to pay for it.
