The World Anti-Doping Code
 
The 2006 Prohibited List
 
International Standard

What is the Prohibited List?

●  The Prohibited List (List) was first published in 1963 under the leadership of the International Olympic Committee. Since 2004, as mandated by the World Anti-Doping Code (Code), WADA is responsible for the preparation and publication of the List.
●  The List is a cornerstone of the Code and a key component of harmonization.
●  It is an International Standard identifying Substances and Methods prohibited in-competition, out-of-competition, and in particular sports.
●  Substances and methods are classified by categories (e.g., steroids, stimulants, gene doping).
●  The use of any Prohibited Substance by an athlete for medical reasons is possible by virtue of a Therapeutic Use Exemption.
