Prohibited at all times
WADA 2026: prohibited at all times under S5; specified substance. The future 2027 List retains this classification. [1] [2]
2026 and 2027 List, S5, printed p.12; introductory definitions p.3 · 2026 rules apply from 1 January 2026. Any 2027 material below concerns future rules from 1 January 2027; it is not current clearance.
Medical and pharmacological context
US oral labeling describes a diuretic and blood-pressure-lowering medicine for hypertension and salt/fluid retention associated with congestive heart failure. [3]
- The cited country-specific product information does not establish worldwide authorization or current supply.
Health concerns
The label reports severe low sodium accompanied by low potassium, particularly in older women. Uric-acid elevation and gout are additional concerns. [3]
- Selected warnings, not a complete contraindication or interaction list. Patient-label evidence does not establish athlete safety.
Additional anti-doping conditions
When a prohibited diuretic or masking agent is detected with formoterol, salbutamol, cathine, ephedrine, methylephedrine or pseudoephedrine, S5 has an additional TUE requirement even below the usual threshold. The note expressly excludes qualifying carbonic-anhydrase-inhibitor eye administration and local dental felypressin. It is not a dosing or test-clearance rule. [1] [2]
- A prescription or medical indication is not itself a TUE approval.
What remains uncertain
- Educational synthesis only; not individualized medical advice, a TUE decision or a sanction prediction.
