[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm pretty sure some of the ADHD "medicines" would be no different than "Banned substances".[/quote] There is a big difference. Sure, there has been abuse of ADHD meds, particularly in certain sports, but that doesn't mean they aren't medicines with proven, valuable, clinical uses for medical conditions that have significant impacts on people. There also has been abuse of heart medications like beta-blockers in other sports, but those same medications are essential for dangerous heart arrhythmias. Both are allowed at all levels of sports when used in proper dosages for properly-documented clinical purposes. [/quote]
