New Equine Anti-Doping & Controlled Medication Regulations come into force on 05 April 2010
Next month, the FEI will introduce its revised Equine Anti-Doping & Controlled Medication (EADCM) Regulations. Equestrian Australia is bound to use this new system and has published a version adapted for Australian conditions, to apply to non-FEI events held in this country.

The major changes to current/existing rules can be summarised as follows:
1. A separation of rules for 'doping' and 'controlled medication' offences
2. Specific lists of banned substances
3. An increased scope for penalties including for a wider group of people.
Please reade the regulations and the Athletes’ Guide to get thorough understanding of the new regime.
Please note: All competitors in FEI Events will also be required after 05 April 2010 to keep a log of medications administered to their horses. You will be able to download this log and keep it with your FEI or EA Horse Passport.
