drug ban

Forbidden chemical substances

A drug ban is an official prohibition on certain substances, whether by a government, sports organization, or other authority.

Government drug bans criminalize possession and sale of controlled substances.

In athletics, a drug ban may refer to the prohibition itself or to a suspension imposed on an athlete who violated anti-doping rules: She served a two-year drug ban after testing positive for steroids.
