Association of Racing Commissioners International 1510 Newtown Pike, Lexington, Kentucky, United States www.arci.com Page 1 of 61 Preamble to the Uniform Classification Guidelines of Foreign Substances The Preamble to the Uniform Classification Guidelines was approved by the RCI Drug Testing and Quality Assurance Program Committee (now the Drug Testing Standards and Practices Program Committee) on August 26, 1991. Minor revisions to the Preamble were made by the Drug Classification subcommittee (now the Veterinary Pharmacologists Subcommittee) on September 3, 1991. "The Uniform Classification Guidelines printed on the following pages are intended to assist stewards, hearing officers and racing commissioners in evaluating the seriousness of alleged violations of medication and prohibited substance rules in racing jurisdictions. Practicing equine veterinarians, state veterinarians, and equine pharmacologists are available and should be consulted to explain the pharmacological effects of the drugs listed in each class prior to any decisions with respect to penalities to be imposed. The ranking of drugs is based on their pharmacology, their ability to influence the outcome of a race, whether or not they have legitimate therapeutic uses in the racing horse, or other evidence that they may be used improperly. These classes of drugs are intended only as guidelines and should be employed only to assist persons adjudicating facts and opinions in understanding the seriousness of the alleged offenses. The facts of each case are always different and there may be mitigating circumstances which should always be considered.

Status in Japan Hypnotics and anxiolytics are prescribed by various specialties and widely used in clinical practice. In particular, benzodiazepine (BZ) receptor agonists, which act on BZ receptors, bind to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)A-BZ receptor complex and enhance the function of GABAA receptors. This promotes neurotransmission of inhibitory systems and demonstrates hypnotic/sedative effects, anxiolytic effects, muscle relaxant effects, and antispasmodic effects. Since the approval of chlordiazepoxide in March 1961, many BZ receptor agonists have been approved as hypnotics and anxiolytics. Currently, hypnotics and anxiolytics are causative agents of drug-related disorders such as drug dependence in Japanese clinical practice. Hypnotics and anxiolitics that rank high in causative agents are BZ receptor agonists for which high frequencies of high doses and multidrug prescriptions have been reported (Japanese Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology 2013; 16(6): 803-812, Modern Physician 2014; 34(6): 653-656, etc.).

Two of the most vigorous and sensational were those chaired by Congressman Blatnik and by Senator Kefauver. They were highly critical of the quality of drug advertising, theevi­ dence for effectiveness of marketed pharmaceuticals, the allegedly monopolistic nature of the drug industry, and the price of medicines. The drug industry, accustomed to respect and gratitude from physicians and the public, was suddenly confronted with hostile, sensational newspaper headlines and stories and a rising wave of angry criticism.
