Prohibited List

The Prohibited List is a roster of substances and methods that athletes are banned from using in sports to ensure fair competition and athlete health. Created by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), it includes illegal drugs, certain performance-enhancing substances, and techniques that could give an unfair advantage. The list is updated annually and serves to promote integrity in sports. Athletes must be aware of the items on this list to avoid unintentional doping violations, which can lead to penalties, including suspension or disqualification from competitions.
