Thank you for sharing your concerns! While USADA is mandated by Congress to focus our resources on elite athletes in the Olympic and Paralympic Movement, we do test all levels of competitions when contracted by sport organizations and thoroughly assess every tip we receive for jurisdiction and actionability. We encourage all athletes to advocate to their sport and national governing bodies for the anti-doping services they wish to see in the sport.

Athletes are responsible for knowing which substances are prohibited in sport. Before taking any medication, make sure you're getting information from trusted sources such as Global DRO.

Global DRO provides athletes and support personnel with information about the prohibited status of specific medications based on the current World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Prohibited List.

A few minutes of research today can help you avoid unnecessary chaos tomorrow!💥
