WADA, athletes, prohibited substances, WADA - Accredited LaboratoryAbstract
Today, doping is an international issue that affects all sporting activities. The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) creates the so-called Prohibited List, which is updated at least once a year and contains all substances and methods that are prohibited in sports. It is the responsibility of athletes, coaches, and sports medicine professionals to be aware of which practices and substances are prohibited by the Prohibited List. The purpose of this article is to update the current prohibited substances and practices as well as substances that might be applied for the Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE). The most advancement in current analytical techniques used by WADA-Accredited Laboratories to enhance the detection of doping agents in sports is also described.
