The World Anti-Doping Agency is the independent agency responsible for the World Anti-Doping Code, which forms the basis for anti-doping policies in sport.

Archery athletes should familiarise themselves with the lists as they are applicable under World Archery Anti-Doping Rules.
More information can be found on anti-doping in archery and therapeutic use exemptions (TUEs), including how to apply for one if it is necessary for an athlete to take a prohibited substance for medical reasons, in the clean sport section of the World Archery website.
