If the medication or method an athlete is required to use to treat an illness or condition is prohibited as per the World Anti-Doping Agency’s (WADA) Prohibited List a TUE may give that athlete the authorization to use that substance or method while competing without invoking an anti-doping rule violation (ADRV) and applicable sanction. Applications for TUEs are evaluated by a panel of physicians, the TUE Committee (TUEC) .  \nWHAT ARE THE CRITERIA FOR GRANTING A TUE?  \nAll of the four following criteria must be met (for more details, please refer to the WADA International Standard for Therapeutic Use Exemptions (ISTUE) Article 4.2 ) :  \n▪ The athlete has a clear diagnosed medical condition which requires treatment using a prohibited substance or method;  \n▪ The therapeutic use of the substance will not, on the balance of probabilities produce significant enhancement of performance beyond the athlete’s normal state of health;  \n▪ The prohibited substance or method is an indicated treatment for the medical condition, and there is no reasonable permitted therapeutic alternative.  \n▪ The necessity to use that substance or method is not a consequence of the prior use (without a TUE), of a substance or method which was prohibited at the time of use.  \nWHO SHOULD APPLY FOR A TUE? WHERE AND WHEN TO APPLY?  \nConfédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatiques (CMAS) has delegated responsibility for all TUE applications to the International Testing Agency (ITA) . This means that the ITA is now fully responsible for the TUE application process for all international-level athletes that fall under CMAS’s jurisdiction.  \nAthletes who are subject to anti-doping rules would need a TUE to take a prohibited substance or use a prohibited method. You should verify with the ITA to know to whom you need to apply and if you can apply retroactively.  \nFirst, check if the required medication or method you intend to take, or use is prohibited as per the WADA Prohibited List.  \nYou may also use a ‘check your medication’ online like globalDRO ([https://globaldro.com](https://globaldro.com)) or ask your NADO if it has one.  \nYou have a responsibility to inform your physician(s) that you are an Athlete bound to anti-doping rules. You and your physician(s) should check the Prohibited List for the substance/method you are prescribed. If the substance/method is prohibited, discuss non-prohibited alternatives, if there are none, apply for a TUE. Remember Athletes have the ultimate responsibility. Contact your NADO or the ITA if you are having difficulties in assessing the status of a substance.  \nThen, verify below your status, to determine your competition level and TUE application requirements:  \nInternational Level Definition  \n(a) Athletes who are part of the CMAS Registered Testing Pool;  \n(b) Athletes who are part of the CMAS Testing Pool (if one is established);  \n(c) Athletes who participate in the following CMAS International Events: a. World Championships; b. World Cups; c. Continental Championships  \n􀂌 If it is determined that you are an International-Level Athlete you must apply to the ITA in advance, as soon as the need arises, unless there are emergency or exceptional circumstances.  \nFor substances prohibited in-competition only, you should apply for a TUE at least 30 days before your next competition, unless one of the exceptions on retroactive TUEs (see below) apply.  \nPlease refer to the section “How to apply to the ITA for a TUE?” below.  \nIf you already have a TUE granted by your National Anti-Doping Organization (NADO):  \nYour NADO’s TUE is only valid at the national level, and you must submit a request for recognition the ITA. Please refer to the section “How to submit a request for recognition of your NADO’s TUE to the ITA?” below.  \n􀂌 If you are NOT an Inte","cbCaigGnR6QzDzUO","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigGnR6QzDzUO","pdf",205892,"English","# WHAT IS A THERAPEUTIC USE EXEMPTION (TUE)?\n# WHAT ARE THE CRITERIA FOR GRANTING A TUE?\n# WHO SHOULD APPLY FOR A TUE?
