Check your prescribed treatment against the Prohibited List

As the Prohibited List is updated annually, you should regularly recheck the status of any medication you continue to use

See ITIA website

Does your treatment involve the use of a prohibited substance or method?

Don't know - review the Prohibited List yourself and with your physician. Contact the ITIA via the website or app for further assistance

Proceed with the treatment

• Check regularly for updates to the Prohibited List for as long as you receive this treatment
• Keep a record should you be tested and required to declare the medication on a doping control form

Ask your physician if there is an effective alternative treatment not containing a prohibited substance or method?

Is the substance prohibited at all times?

Are you in-competition when receiving the treatment?

(From 11.59p.m. the day before the first match of the draw you are competing in until your last match - full definition see TADP)

Is it a glucocorticoid injection?

Substances may remain in your system for a number of days - proceed with caution

Reminders:

You need to submit an application for a Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE). A TUE permits you to use the prohibited substance or method without committing an Anti-Doping Rule Violation (ADRV) - providing that all such use is in accordance with the conditions of the TUE.
