fear and calmequin are not regarded as prohibited substances and
could be used.
There seems to be confusion on which substances are prohibited and
which will be allowed. Unfortunately it is not practical to try and
list all the prohibited substances either by generic name (these
names will not mean much to most people) or trade name (impossible
to list all the trade names). To make this issue less complicated,
Dr. Coen de Bruin has compiled a list of substances which are not
regarded as prohibited substances.
Please note that he has
only listed products that are registered (under Act 36 and 101) for
the use in horses. If other products are used off-label (i.e. not
registered for horses or products for human use), the onus is on the
rider to ensure that such a product does not contain a prohibited
substance. Also note that some of the listed products are injectable
formulations which are not allowed to be administered at the
competition venue. The use of herbal products is still a grey area
and is therefore not listed.
The herbal product Devils Claw has been
banned by the FEI and is therefore regarded a prohibited substance.
