Can you die from steroid use?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Steroids: Yes though it is not common. One complication of steroids is ulcer disease which can cause complications leading to death as an example. If you really need steroids as in addison's disease and they are suddenly discontinued, serious effects may also occur.
