How can I find out whether my medication contains a doping substance?
Sports Medicine
As is known, in recent years, as part of the fight against doping in sports, doping control samples are frequently taken in national and international competitions and even out of competition. Therefore, elite athletes in particular must absolutely not use any medication without the knowledge of their team doctors or sports physicians. Athletes can check whether the medications they use fall within the scope of prohibited substances by searching the names of the substances listed in the medication's package insert in the Prohibited List updated every year by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).
