Reference List of Licensed Drugs in Sport
This list is a reference source for licensed medical products according to the latest IOC (International Olympic Committee) guidelines. Some food suplements are included, but verified information on ingredients of most supplements is very hard to obtain. Medicines and supplements may change in appearance, content and banned status from time to time, and some organisations may have more stringent rules for their own sport. If you are in any doubt, consult with your group medical officer. For Banned substances refer Banned Substances
