As you know the World Anti-Doping Agency publishes its Prohibited list annually in October, to come into effect on the 1st January the following year. 

As such the 2023 Prohibited List has now been published and can be found here.

Strict liability means that all athletes are 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.

Athletes should advise all medical personnel of their obligation to abide by the anti-doping rules and that any medical treatment received must not violate these rules.
