LIST OF EXAMPLES OF PROHIBITED SUBSTANCES AND PROHIBITED METHODS

 

  

I.    PROHIBITED CLASSES OF SUBSTANCES

 

A. Stimulants

 

Prohibited substances in class (A) include the following examples:

 

amineptine,   amiphenazole,  amphetamines,  bromantan,  caffeine*, carphedon,  cocaine,  ephedrines**,fencamfamin,  formoterol  ***, mesocarb,  pentetrazol,  pipradrol,  salbutamol***,  salmeterol***, terbutalinc***,

 

... and related substances.

 

* For caffeine the definition of a positive is a concentration in urine grater than 12 micrograms per millilitre.

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

 *** 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. At the Olympics Games, athletes who request permission to inhale a permitted beta agonist •will be assessed by an independent medical panel.

 

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 and phenylephrine are permitted.

B. Narcotics

 

Prohibited substances in class (B) include the following examples:

buprenorphine,  dextromoramide,  diamorphine  (heroin),  methadone, morphine, pentazocine, pethidine, and related substances.

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

C. Anabolic agents

 

Prohibited substances in class (C) include the following examples:

 

1. Anabolic androgenic steroids

 

a. clostebol,       fluoxymesterone,       metandienone,       metenolone, nandrolone, 19-norandrostenediol,      19-norandrostenedione,         oxandrolone, stanozolol,

...and related substances,

 

b. androstenediol,  androstenedione,  dehydroepiandrosterone  (DHEA), dihydrotestosterone, testosterone*,

 ... and related substances.

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

* The presence of a testosterone (T) to epitestostrone (E) ratio greater than six (6) to one (1) in the urine of a competitor constitutes an offense 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. Beta-2 agonists

 

bambuterol, clenbuterol, fenoterol, formoterol*, reproterol, salbutamol*, salmeterol*, terbutaline*,

… and related substances.

*Authorized by inhalation as described in Article (I.A.).

 For salbutamol the definition of a positive under the anabolic agent category is a concentration in urine greater than 1000 nanograms per millilitre.

top

 

D. Diuretics

Prohibited substances in class (D) include the following examples:

acetazolamide, bumetanide, chlortalidone, etacrynic acid, furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide, mannitol*, mersalyl, spironolactone, triamterene,

... and related substances.

* Prohibited by intravenous injection.

E. Peptide hormones, mimetics and analogues

 Prohibited substances in class (E) include the following examples and their analogues and mimetics:

 

1. Chorionic Gonadotrophin (hCG) prohibited in males only,

2. Pituitary and synthetic gonadotrophins (LH) prohibited in males only;

3. Corticotrophins (ACTH, tetracosactide);

4. Growth hormone (hGH);

and all the respective releasing factors and their analogues:

 

6. Erythropoietin (EPO);

7. Insulin;

permitted only to treat athletes -with certified insulin-dependent diabetes. Written certification of insulin-dependent diabetes must be obtained from an endocrinologist or team physician.

The presence of an abnormal concentration of an endogenous hormone in class (E) or its diagnostic marker(s) in the urine of a competitor constitutes an offense unless it has been proven to be due to a physiological or pathological condition.

top

 

II.   PROHIBITED METHODS

 

The following procedures are prohibited:

1.       Blood doping: means the administration of blood, red blood cells and/or related blood products to an athlete, which may be preceded by withdrawal of blood from the athlete, who continues to train in such a blood-depleted state.

2.       Administering artificial oxygen carriers or plasma expanders;

3.       Pharmacological, chemical and physical manipulation.

III.  CLASSES OF PROHIBITED SUBSTANCES IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES

 

A. Alcohol

 

Where the rules of a responsible authority so provide, tests will be conducted for ethanol.

top

 

B. Cannabinoids

 

Where the rules of a responsible authority so provide, tests will be conducted for cannabinoids (e.g. Marijuana, Hashish). At the Olympic Games, tests will be conducted for cannabinoids. A concentration in urine of 11-nor-delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol-9-carboxylic acid (carboxy-THC) greater than 15 nanograms per millilitre constitutes doping.

top

 

C. Local anaesthetics

 

Injectable local anaesthetics are permitted under the following conditions:
