Under the Strict Liability Principle, it is the ultimate responsibility of an athlete to prevent any prohibited substance from entering his/her body. It is extremely important to explain the unique precautions to a doctor who is about to treat a patient that happens to be an athlete.

HKADC has prepared a sample letter to explain to the doctors what should be taken into account before treating or prescribing to an athlete. Download Letter to Doctor

All athletes are highly recommended to bring along with this sample letter and the Prohibited List of the current year next time when you see the doctor.
