There are six types of drugs in sport:

Stimulants like caffeine or cocaine will improve your reaction times and make you more alert and confident. Side affects include iritability, depession and aggression. People in a scary sport or in a sport where you need good reaction times might use this.

Narcotic Analgesiecs like morphene, heroin and codene are basically pain killers and allow athletes to carry on when injured. Side affects include making your injury worse and they are also highly addictive and give bad withdrawal symptoms. You might use them in a contact sport like Rugby or boxing.

Anabolic Steroids like THG will basically increase the speed you make muscle than normal. They also increase the speed at which your muscles repair. Side affects include agression, Heart disease and facial hair and a deep voice in women!!!!!!!!!!

Diuretics will make you loose weight because you loose control of your bladder ect and they decrease the amount of water in your body. Obviously this will mean you get dehydrated, nauseus, weak and dissy. People in horse racing will use them so they don't weigh as much and their horses can run faster.

Peptide hormones, mimetics and anolues are growth hormones that make your muscles and bones grow faster than normal. Side affects include obviously abnormal growth but also high blood pressure and loss of fertility. You might use these in things like Basketball where you have to be tall.

Finally Beta Blockers reduce nervous feelings and adrenaline in your body. Side affects include drowsiness and depression. You might use these in a sport where you have to be calm to take a shot or something like shooting or snooker.

Blood doping is also used in longer events but no drugs are used.
