Abstract

Doping is a global problem at world sporting events of a legal nature, medical and ethical. International sports forums have tried to stop the spread of this scourge, to no avail. Educational programs, tests and medical treatment are expected to reduce substance abuse. New, more powerful and undetectable anti-doping techniques and substances are being abused by professional athletes, and drugs are being distributed through various sophisticated networks. Professional athletes are often role models for adolescents, young people and adults and their behaviours are imitated, including drug abuse. The reanalysis of doping in international sports will be oriented towards better information of the psychiatric specialists and towards an urgent intervention in the treatment of the addiction of substances in sports.
