what the IAAF
officially lists as illegal. The chemicals are listed out
of alphabetical order due to format difficulties. Also
note the prohibited techniques, which include use of
diuretics. SCHEDULE 1 PROHIBITED SUBSTANCES PART I (a) Anabolic Agents (I) Androgenic Anabolic Steroids e.g. androstenedione bolasterone methyltestosterone boldenone nandrolone chlordehydromethyltestosterone norethandrolone clostebol oxandrolone dehydroepiandrosterone oxymesterone dihydrotestosterone* oxymetholone fluoxymesterone stanozolol gestrinone testosterone** mesterolone methandienone methenolone and chemically or pharmacologically related compounds * Dihydrotestosterone: a sample will be deemed to be positive for dihydrotestosterone where the concentrations of dihydrotestosterone and its metabolites and/or their ratios to non-5alpha-steroids in urine so exceed the range of values normally found in humans as not to be consistent with normal endogenous production. ** Testosterone: a sample will be deemed to be positive for testosterone where either the ratio in urine of testosterone to epitestosterone, or the concentration of testosterone in urine, so exceeds the range of values normally found in humans as not to be consistent with normal endogenous production. A sample will not be regarded as positive for dihydrotestosterone or testosterone where an athlete proves by clear and convincing evidence that the abnormal ratio or concentration is attributable to a pathological or physiological condition. (II) Other Anabolic Agents e.g. beta-2-agonists # (e.g. bambuterol, clenbuterol, formoterol, reproterol) # Exceptionally, the administration of the beta-2-agonists salbutamol, salmeterol or terbutaline are permitted by inhalation where prescribed for therapeutic purposes by properly qualified medical personnel and where prior clearance has been given by the relevant National Federation or the IAAF. (For IAAF procedure, see Chapter 5). (b) Amphetamines: e.g. amineptine mesocarb amphetamine methoxyphenamine amphetaminil methylamphetamine benzphetamine methylphenidate bromantan morazone carphedon pemoline mesocarb methoxyphenamine methylamphetamine methylphenidate morazone pemoline dimethylamphetamine phendimetrazine ethylamphetamine phenmetrazine fenethylline pipradrol fenproporex pyrovalerone furfenorex selegiline mefenorex and chemically or pharmacologically related compounds. (c) Peptide, Glycoprotein and Glucocorticoid Hormones and Analogues, e.g. Corticosteroids by oral, intramuscular or intravenous application. Chorionic Gonadotrophin (HCG - human chorionic gonadotrophin): it is well known that the administration to males of human chorionic gonadotrophin and other compounds with related activity leads to an increased rate of production of endogenous androgenic steroids and is considered equivalent to the exogenous administration of testosterone. A sample will be deemed to be positive for HCG where the concentration of HCG in urine so exceeds the range of values normally found in humans as not to be consistent with normal endogenous production. A sample will not be regarded as positive for HCG where an athlete proves by clear and convincing evidence that the abnormal concentration is attributable to a pathological or physiological condition. Corticotrophin (ACTH): corticotrophin has been misused to increase the blood levels of endogenous corticosteroids notably to obtain the euphoric effect of corticosteroids. The application of corticotrophin is considered to be equivalent to the oral, intra-muscular or intravenous application of corticosteroids. Growth Hormone (HGH, somatotrophin): the misuse of growth hormone in sport is deemed to be unethical and dangerous because of various adverse effects, for example, allergic reactions, diabetogenic effects, and acromegaly when applied in high doses. Erythropoietin (EPO) is a glycoprotein produced principally in the kidneys which stimulates the production of red blood corpuscles. All the respective releasing factors (and their analogues) of the above-mentioned substances are also banned. (d) Cocaine (e) Prohibited Techniques: (see SCHEDULE 2) PART II (a) Stimulants: e.g. PART II (a) Stimulants: e.g. amiphenazole ethamivan caffeine* fencamfamin cathine methylephedrine chlorphentermine nikethamide clobenzorex pentetrazol clorprenaline phentermine cropropamide phenylpropanolamine crotethamide prolintane ephedrine propylhexedrine etafedrine strychnine and chemically or pharmacologically related compounds * For caffeine the definition of a positive finding is one in which the concentration in urine exceeds 12 micrograms/millilitre. A sample may not be regarded as positive for caffeine where an athlete proves by clear and convincing evidence that the abnormal concentration is attributable to a physiological condition. (b) Narcotic Analgesics: e.g. alphaprodine methadone anileridine morphine* buprenorphine nalbuphine dextromoramide pentazocine diamorphine pentazocine dipipanone pethidine ethoheptazine phenazocine levorphanol trimeperidine and chemically or pharmacologically related compounds Note - codeine, dextromethorphan, dextropropoxyphene dihydrocodeine, diphenoxylate, ethylmorphine and pholcodine are permitted. * For morphine the definition of a positive finding is one in which the concentration in the urine exceeds 1 microgram/millilitre of free and conjugated morphine. PART III Substances and prohibited techniques to be detected during Out-Of-Competition Testing. (a) Anabolic Agents (see PART I (a) ) (b) Peptide, Glycoprotein and Glucocorticoid Hormones and Analogues (see PART I (c) ) (c) Prohibited Techniques (see SCHEDULE 2) SCHEDULE 2 PROHIBITED TECHNIQUES The expression "prohibited techniques" shall include: i) Blood doping including the use of erythropoietin (EPO). See SCHEDULE 1 PART 1(c) ii) Use or attempted use of substances and of methods e.g. diuretics, which alter the integrity and validity of urine samples used in doping controls. Examples of prohibited techniques are catheterisation, urine substitution and/or tampering, inhibition of renal excretion, e.g. by probenecid, bromantan and related compounds. iii) Epitestosterone: a sample will be deemed to be positive for epitestosterone where either the concentration of epitestosterone in urine, or the ratio of epitestosterone to other endogenous steroids in urine, so exceeds the range of values normally found in humans as not to be consistent with normal endogenous production. |
