A man will face court on Tuesday, charged after a commercial quantity of anabolic steroids was allegedly seized at a Maitland home.
It comes after officers from the Port Stephens-Hunter Drug Unit began an investigation into the supply of anabolic steroids in the Maitland area last month.
Investigators executed a warrant at a home on Lapwing Street, Aberglasslyn, on Monday.
During a search of the home, officers allegedly located and seized 233 vials containing 2.3 litres of anabolic steroids, along with 5.2 litres of liquid believed to be anabolic steroids, glassware and chemicals.
These items will be forensically examined.
A 31-year-old man was arrested at the home and taken to Maitland Police Station, where he was charged with supply prohibited drug - commercial quantity.
The man has been refused bail to appear at Newcastle Local Court.
