Lawal used the dietary supplement S-Mass Lean Gainer that contained the steroids Superdrol and Promagnon

King Mo Lawal admitted that he had administrated a dietary supplement that was tainted. As it turned out to be, that supplement contained 2 ingredients which were synthetic steroids. According to this fighter and his manager, usage of this product led to positive for Masteron.
King Mo Lawal noticed during an interview for MMA Hour that he had purchased “S-Mass Lean Gainer” in a Max Muscle store in April, 2010. This supplement was produced by Steel Body Production.
But this is not the situation, when steroid ingredients are not disclosed. Synonyms of prohibited preparations are enumerated on the label of this product. Actually, these steroids were the subjects of several debates between anti-doping agencies and federal regulators since 2005. They are following:  2a-17a-Dimethyl-5aandrost-3-one 17b-ol and 4-Chloro-17a-Methyl-a-andro4-ene3, 17b-diol. These drugs are better known under the names: Superdrol and Promagnon.
As for Superdrol, it goes by methyldrostanolone, methasteron and 2a-17a-Dimethyl-5aandrost-3-one 17b-ol. So, methylated version of Masteron was defined in the urine sample of Lawal by a proper lab of the anti-doping agency.
The pharmaceutical company Anabolic Resources was the first that produced Superdrol as a dietary supplement. It was over 5 years ago. This company was charged with elaborating of a new unapproved medicine. Later the company pleaded guilty and admitted that they had marketed a synthetic steroid as a dietary supplement.  As a result, this pharmaceutical company had to pay a fine of 500, 000 dollars.
As for Promagnon, it also initially appeared as a dietary supplement in 2005 by Peak Performance’ Labs. The government didn’t take any action against this pharmaceutical company for manufacturing and selling this steroid. But Peak Performance made a decision to discontinue producing this steroid in 2006.
Although legal status of these two steroids is controversial, many companies have manufactured and distributed them as dietary supplements during about 6 years. Undoubtedly, those who are involved in this industry know about the status of these substances but they continue to offer them for sales.
The manager for Lawal says that the full responsibilities should be taken by the companies that market synthetic steroids as dietary supplements. He adds that such companies misguide consumers intentionally.
