* For caffeine the definition of a positive is a concentration in urine greater than 12 μg/ml.

** For cathine, the definition of a positive is a concentration in urine greater than 5 μg/ml. For ephedrine and methylephedrine, the definition of a positive is a concentration in urine greater than 10 μg/. For phenylpropanolamine and pseudoephedrine, the definition of a positive is a concentration in urine greater than 25 μg/ml.

Note All imidazole preparations are acceptable for topical use. Vasoconstrictors may be administered with local anaesthetic agents. Topical preparations (e.g. nasal, ophthalmological, rectal) of adrenaline are permitted. The use of bupropion, synephrine and phenylephrine is permitted.

 

2. Beta-2-Agonists

Bambuterol

Reproterol

Salmeterol*

Formoterol*

Salbutamol*

Terbutalin*

and related substances

* Formoterol, Salbutamol, Salmeterol and Terbutalin permitted by inhaler only to prevent and/or treat asthma and exercise-induced asthma. Written notification by a respiratory or team physician that the athlete has asthma and/or exercise-induced asthma is necessary to the relevant medical authority prior to competition (written notification to the specially assigned Medical Doctor of the Anti-Doping Commission). At the Olympics Games, athletes who request permission to inhale a permitted beta-2 agonist, will be assessed by an independent medical panel.

 

I.B. Narcotics

Buprenorphine

Hydrocodone

Pentazocine

Dextromoramide

Methadone

Pethidine

Diamorphine (Heroin)

Morphine*

and related substances

*For morphine the definition of a positive is a concentration in urine greater than 1 g/ml

Note: codeine, dextromethorphan, dextropropoxyphene, dihydrocodeine, diphenoxylate, ethylmorphine, pholcodine, propoxyphene and tramadol are permitted.

 

I.C. Anabolic Agents

1. Anabolic androgenic steroids

Androstendiol

Fluoxymesterone 19-

Norandrostendiol

Androstendione

Formebolone 19-

Norandrostendione

Bolasterone

Gestrinone

Norboletone

Boldenone

Mesterolone Norethandrolone

Clostebol

Metandienone Oxandrolone

Danazol Dehydrochlormethyltestosterone

Metenolone Oxymesterone

Methandriol

Oxymetholone

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)

Methyltestosterone

Stanozolol

Dihydrotestosterone

Mibolerone

Testosterone*

Drostanolone

Nandrolone

Trenbolone

and related substances

Note: Evidence obtained from metabolic profiles and/or isotopic ratio measurements may be used to draw definitive conclusions.

* The presence of a testosterone (T) to epitestosterone (E) ratio greater than six (6 )to one (1) in the urine of a competitor constitutes an offence unless there is evidence that this ratio is due to a physiological or pathological condition, e.g. low epitestosterone excretion, androgen producing tumour, enzyme deficiencies.

In the case of T/E greater than 6, it is mandatory that the relevant medical authority conducts an investigation before the sample is declared positive. A full report will be written and will include a review of previous tests, subsequent tests and any results of endocrine investigations. In the event that previous tests are not available, the athlete should be tested unannounced at least once per month for three months. The results of these investigations should be included in the report. Failure to cooperate in the investigations will result in declaring the sample positive.

 

2. Other anabolic agents

Bambuterol

Formoterol*

Salmeterol*

Clenbuterol

Reproterol

Terbutaline*

Fenoterol

Salbutamol*°

and related substances

* Ref. I.A.2. Beta-2-Agonists

° For salbutamol, a concentration in urine greater than 1000 nanograms per millilitre of non-sulphated salbutamol constitutes a doping violation.

 

I.D. Diuretics

Acetazolamide

Chlortalidone

Mannitol*

Amiloride

Etacrynic acid Mersalyl

Bendroflumethiazide

Furosemide

Spironolactone

Bumetanide

Hydrochlorthiazide Torasemide

Canrenone

Indapamide

Triamterene

and related substances

* Prohibited by intravenous injection.

 

I.E. Peptide hormones, mimetics and analogues

1. Chorionic Gonadotrophin (hCG)*

2. Pituitary and synthetic gonadotrophins (LH)*

3. Corticotropins (ACTH, tetracosactid)

4. Growth hormone (hGH)

5. Insulin-like Growth Factor(IGF-1)

6. Erythropoietin (EPO)

7. Insulin**

* prohibited in males only

** permitted only to treat athletes with certified insulin-dependent diabetes. The term ‘insulin-dependent’ is used here to describe people with diabetes in whom insulin treatment is required, in the judgement of a suitably qualified physician. It will always be the case in Type 1 and sometimes in Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Written certification of insulin-dependent diabetes must be obtained from an endocrinologist or team physician.

Note: Prohibited are all the respective releasing factors and their analogues. The presence of an abnormal concentration of an endogenous hormone or its diagnostic marker(s) in the urine of a competitor constitutes an offence unless it has been proven to be due to a physiological or pathological condition.

 

I.F. Agents with anti-oestrogenic activity

Clomiphene*

Cyclofenil*

Tamoxifen*

* prohibited in males only

 

I.G. Masking Agents

Masking agents are prohibited. They are products that have the potential to impair the excretion of prohibited substances or to conceal their presence in urine or other samples used in doping control.

  • Diuretics

  • Epitestosterone*

  • Probenecid

  • Plasma expanders (e.g. hydroxyethyl starch (HES)

* The presence of a urinary concentration of epitestosterone greater than 200 ng/mL constitutes an anti-doping violation unless there is evidence that it is due to a physiological condition. Isotopic ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) may be used to draw definitive conclusions. If the results of the IRMS are inconclusive, the relevant medical authority shall conduct an investigation before the sample is declared positive.
