Combatants are required to disclose at a physical examination conducted at the time of the weigh-in any and all drugs, medications and supplements that a combatant is using. In addition, combatants are not to use any drugs, medications and supplements between the time of the weigh-in physical and the conclusion of the combative sport event unless the combatant has provided notice to the New York State Athletic Commission (NYSAC) and received written approval. Please read the entire notice below regarding NYSAC’s drug policies, complete the acknowledgment form and return it to NYSAC. Please contact NYSAC with any questions (212-417-5700, x3). Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatories (NSAIDS): Combatants participating in a combative sport event should avoid the use of non-topical nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDS) within one (1) week of a combative sport event because of a potential increased risk of bleeding. Caution should also be exercised regarding the use of NSAIDS while actively sparring. Use of NSAIDS within one week of a combative sport event may result in cancellation of the match. Drugs that are considered NSAIDS include: ARTHROTEC ASPIRIN (Ecotrin, Empirin, Halfprin, Bayer, Anacin, Zorprin, Excedrin, Bufferin) CHOLINE MAGNESIUM TRISALICYLATE (Trilisate) DICLOFENAC (Voltaren, Voltaren XR, Cataflam, Flector, Voltaren Rapide) DIFLUNISAL (Dolobid) ETODOLAC (Ultradol) FENOPROFEN (Nalfon) FLURBIPROFEN (Ansaid, Froben, Froben SR) IBUPROFEN (Motrin, Advil, Nuprin, Rufen, Neoprofen) INDOMETHACIN (Indocin, Indocin SR, Indocin IV, Indocid) KETOPROFEN (Orudis, Orudis KT, Actron, Oruvail, Orudis SR) KETORALAC (Toradol) MECLOFENAMATE MEFENAMIC ACID (Ponstel, Ponstan) MELOXICAM (Mobic, Mobicox) NABUMETONE (Relafen) NAPROXEN (Naprosyn, Aleve, Anaprox, EC-Naprosyn, Naprelan) OXAPROZIN (Daypro) Illicit Substances and Performance Enhancing Drugs: The use of illicit substances and Performance Enhancing Drugs (PED) presents a grave and growing threat to the integrity of athletic competition within the sports of boxing and mixed martial arts. The use of illicit substances and PEDs in professional boxing is strictly prohibited by the New York State Athletic Commission. All combatants appearing in New York are subject to drug testing for both illicit substances and PEDs.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) estimates that more than a half million 8th and 10th grade students are now using these dangerous drugs, and increasing numbers of high school seniors do not believe steroids are risky. Students are acquiring and taking anabolic steroids without any knowledge of the dangers associated with steroid abuse. The short- term adverse physical effects of anabolic steroid abuse are fairly well known. However, the long-term adverse physical effects of anabolic steroid abuse have not been studied, and as such, are not known. In addition, this type of abuse may result in harmful side-effects as well as serious injury and death. The abuser in most cases is unaware of these hidden dangers. Presented as a public service by: This guide will help you understand why steroids are being misused, Drug Enforcement Administration and how you can provide counseling and implement procedures to Office of Diversion Control educate our youth about the dangers of these drugs.

Sports Med. - Vol. 1 1, No. 4, December 1977, pp. 162-169 RADIOIMMUNOASSAY OF ANABOLIC STEROIDS: AN EVALUATION OF THREE ANTISERA FOR THE DETECTION OF ANABOLIC STEROIDS IN BIOLOGICAL FLUIDS Robert DUGAL, Ph.D., Claire DUPUIS, Ph.D. and Michel J. BERTRAND, Ph.D. Centre de Recherches en Sciences de la Sante, Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique, Centre Hospitalier Louis-H. Lafontaine, Montrdal, Quebec, Canada ABSTRACT Recently developped radioimmunoassays (RIA) for the analysis of anabolic steroids and their metabolites in biological fluids were tested for cross-reactivity with other types of steroids. Results show that the degree of desirable cross-reactivity within the two classes of orally active anabolic steroids vary widely and that the antiserum for 19-Nortestosterone (the active principle of intramuscular, preparations) has a very high degree of undesirable cross- reactivity with components of oral contraceptives. Single and multiple dose studies in human volunteers demonstrate that the detection level and degree of retrospectivity are likewise variable but that the test easily detects most anabolic steroids during treatment. At the present time, the combination of the three antisera for the assay of a sample appears to be a relatively rapid and economic method for screening large numbers of samples in situations where doping control of anabolic steroids is required. The importance of utilizing physico-chemical means for identification of RIA potential positives is emphasized. INTRODUCTION (Sumner, 1974: Brooks et al, 1975) and identification procedures for a limited number of them have also been copyright.

  • Interactions of Nandrolone and Psychostimulant Drugs on Central Monoaminergic Systems. National Institute for Health and Welfare (THL), Research 30

First, it aimed to explore the effects of nandrolone decanoate on dopaminergic and serotonergic activities in rat brains. Second, it set out to assess whether nandrolone pre-exposure modulates the acute neurochemical and behavioral effects of psychostimulant drugs in experimental animals. A third aim was to investigate if AAS-pretreatment-induced changes in brain reward circuitry are reversible. Finally, the study was also intended to evaluate the role of androgen receptors in nandrolone’s ability to modulate the dopaminergic and serotonergic effects of stimulants. The results of the study show that AAS pretreatment inhibits the reward- related neurochemical and behavioral effects of amphetamine, MDMA and cocaine in experimental animals. Given that LMA, stereotyped behavior and accumbal outflow of DA and 5-HT are all related to reward, this study suggests that nandrolone, at tested doses, significantly affects the rewarding properties of stimulant drugs. Furthermore, it seems that these effects could be long- lasting and that the ability of nandrolone to modulate reward-related effects of stimulants depends on AR or ER activation. .!7BC5<2"HIFILD!
