Cannabinoid scope

Revised wording focuses on THCs and semi-synthetic or synthetic cannabinoids with Δ9-THC-like effects. Do not carry the broader 2026 wording into 2027 automatically.

S9

An explicit route clarification

Vaginal administration joins the listed routes subject to licensed-dose and therapeutic-indication conditions.

S4 / S5

More named examples

Additional examples do not necessarily create new prohibitions; some already fall within existing classes.

MON

Monitoring changes ≠ delisting

Out-of-competition monitoring of tramadol and fentanyl ends. Their in-competition prohibition continues.
