Prohibited List of substances and methods
The Prohibited List outlines the substances and methods that are prohibited in sport. It is updated annually by the World Anti-Doping Agency. Remember that individual products or brands are not named on the Prohibited List. Athletes should check the status of all medications on Global DRO before they use them.
Checking your substances
Global DRO allows users to check whether the most commonly prescribed and over-the-counter medicines in Australia are permitted or prohibited in sport.
If an athlete requires use of a prohibited substance to treat a medical condition, the athlete needs to be aware of the TUE requirements. For more information on a TUE visit the Sport Integrity Australia website.
With the Sport Australia Integrity App you can:
- Check medications (Global DRO) and find low risk ‘batch-tested’ supplements
- Report an integrity issue or suspicious activities
- Check whether you need an in-advance Therapeutic Use Exemption
- Give feedback or ask a question about anti-doping
- Explore more information in the menu such as details on the rules, testing, health effects of doping, supplement and nutrition advice, and more.
