How come Vicks Vapor Rub is permitted, but Vicks Vapor inhaler is prohibited? Aren’t they the same?
Several over-the-counter Brand Name manufacturers have products with similar names but different ingredients. For instance, the active ingredient in Vicks Vapor Rub is menthol, which is permitted. In contrast Vicks Vapor Inhaler contains Levmetamfetamine which is prohibited in-competition. Always double-check the label on your medication for the ingredients listed and match that with the results in Global DRO to make sure you have selected the correct medication and formulation.
