There are two substances included for the first time in the list: This is the & nbsp; lisdexanfetamina, stimulant of the central nervous system, and nicomorfina, an analgesic of the opioid family.
Remains, and could not be otherwise, the list the meldonium entered last year after a year of monitoring had revealed a widespread use among athletes to increase performance. Evidence strengthened dall''ondata of positivity & agrave; recorded in early dell''anno who soon took the name of Meldonium-gate forcing the Wada, in front of well 172 cases registered until April 13, to run for cover. The data on the times in which metabolites sought drug through the tests remain traceable in & rsquo; organism are not disclosed, as is normally the case, the Latvian manufacturer and the 'anti-doping organization & egrave; faced with the necessity & agrave; to set limits for distinguishing between recruitment took place before or after the 'entry in the list of prohibited substances by the self-tests carried out between March and June. Set thresholds to manage the transition, with the acquittal for the positive athletes found until 29 February with a concentration of less than & nbsp; 5 & mu; g / mL and those found positive by March 1 with a concentration of less than 1 & mu; g / mL, discipline doping enters now in full swing.
If nothing changes for Meldonium, the case of the Norwegian cross-country skier Sundby, found two positive times Salbutamol, beta-2 agonist used for 'asthma and even considered by WADA as opaque substance, with values ​​of 1300 & mu; g / mL well exceeding 1000 nanograms permitted, & egrave; It was one of the reasons that led to change the limits for that substance whose employment & egrave; permitted by inhalation. Retains the threshold of 1000 & mu; g / mL but while in 2016 it was sufficient all''atleta demonstrate pharmacokinetic tests that the threshold had been exceeded while staying within the limits of intake of 1600 micrograms per 24 hours starting from 1 January 2017 do not sar & agrave; You can exceed 800 micrograms every 12 hours in order to avoid unwarranted use of the drug for non-therapeutic reasons.
In presenting the new list Craig Reedie, the chairman of Wada, he said that "The athletes and their entourage will take a long time to become familiar with the new list" with a clear reference to the case Meldonium which caught everyone unprepared nine months ago.
