Prohibited at all times
2026 S4.2: prohibited at all times. Specified. [1]
S4.2 · 2026 rules apply from 1 January 2026. Any 2027 material below concerns future rules from 1 January 2027; it is not current clearance.
Medical context and formulation
Ospemifene is an oral estrogen agonist/antagonist with tissue-selective effects. The checked US Osphena label treats moderate-to-severe painful intercourse or vaginal dryness due to menopausal vulvar and vaginal atrophy. [2]
- This is the checked US label, not a worldwide authorization or availability inventory.
Selected health warnings
The boxed warning addresses endometrial cancer and cardiovascular disorders. The label also discusses venous thrombosis, abnormal genital bleeding, pregnancy and interacting medicines. Its estrogen-like effect in some tissues means the anti-doping category must not be mistaken for an absence of estrogenic medical effects. [2]
- The full label and clinician assessment remain necessary; listed risks are not exhaustive.
What remains uncertain
- No product-specific supplement-contamination pathway was established in this review; a medicine label does not establish contamination prevalence.
