What is the therapeutic use of prohibited substances?
From time to time an athlete may need to use a prohibited substance for a legitimate medical reason. Therapeutic Use Exemption Committees such as ASDMAC examine requests by athletes to legitimately use prohibited substances or methods and decide, in accordance with strict criteria, whether the relevant athlete should be permitted to use them. ASDMAC’s processes are consistent with the Therapeutic Use Exemption standards under the World Anti-Doping Code.
