The World Anti-Doping Agency's 2025 Prohibited List comes into effect on 1st January 2025. The 2025 Prohibited List is available on the WADA website here:Â WADA publishes 2025 Prohibited List | World Anti Doping Agency (wada-ama.org).Â
The Prohibited List identifies which substances and methods are prohibited at all times, in-competition only, and within specific sports. All athletes and athlete support personnel should familiarise themselves with the new changes in advance of them coming into effect on 1st January 2025.
UKAD has also published a summary of the major changes on the UKAD website here:Â 2025 Prohibited List: Summary of Changes | UK Anti-Doping (ukad.org.uk).Â
Beware of strict liability - an athlete is solely responsible for any banned substance they use, attempt to use, or that is found in their system, regardless of how it got there and whether or not they had an intention to cheat.
If you have any questions on the Prohibited List or a medication you may be using, please contact substance@ukad.org.uk, or contact myself directly.Â
