The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has announced that its 2025 List of Prohibited Substances and Methods will come into force on January 1, 2025.

The updated List, which was approved by WADAs Executive Committee during its September meeting, includes several modifications for the coming year. Notable changes include additional examples of prohibited substances across multiple categories, updated dosing intervals for formoterol, and the removal of beta-blockers from the prohibited list for skiing and snowboarding disciplines.

Athletes and their support personnel are reminded that they are responsible for any prohibited substances found in their body and prohibited methods found to have been used. Those requiring the use of any prohibited substance or method for legitimate medical reasons must apply for a Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE).

The 2025 Prohibited List is available in English, French, and Spanish on WADAs website or at this link.
