FEI Equine Prohibited Substances List 2020

The FEI Board has approved changes to the FEI Equine Prohibited Substances List (EPSL) brought forward by the FEI List Group. These changes have been published on our website here so that our National Federations and Athletes and their entourage can start the process of familiarisation with the changes.
The changes to the EPSL will come into force on 1 January 2020.
The consultation process for the 2021 FEI Equine Prohibited Substances List process will commence early in 2020.

WADA Prohibited List 2020 (Human Anti-Doping)

The World Anti-Doping Agency’s (WADA) Prohibited List for 2020 is now published here along with a summary of the major modifications from the 2019 List. It will come into effect on 1 January 2020.
Athletes are required to 1) review any treatment they are currently taking (or consider taking) in order to determine whether it involves substance or method prohibited on the new List, and 2) apply for a TUE (Therapeutic Use Exemption) if necessary.
To run this check, athletes should get help from their team doctor, physician and/or their National /Regional Anti-Doping Organisation.
Athletes and medical practitioners should also be aware of the following:

• The List includes not only substances but also “methods”;
• Over-the-counter medication and supplements may contain prohibited substances;
• Supplements may contain ingredients which are not declared on the label. Therefore, extreme caution is recommended with supplement use.
