Where a Prohibited Substance (as listed above) is capable of being produced by the body naturally, a Sample will be deemed to contain such Prohibited Substance where the concentration of the Prohibited Substance or its metabolites or markers and/or any other relevant ratio(s) in the Athlete’s Sample so deviates from the range of values normally found in humans that it is unlikely to be consistent with normal endogenous production. A Sample shall not be deemed to contain a Prohibited Substance in any such case where the Athlete proves by evidence that the concentration of the Prohibited Substance or its metabolites or markers and/or the relevant ratio(s) in the Athlete’s Sample is attributable to a physiological or pathological condition. In all cases, and at any concentration, the laboratory will report an Adverse Analytical Finding if, based on any reliable analytical method, it can show that the Prohibited Substance is of exogenous origin.

If the laboratory result is not conclusive and no concentration as referred to in the above paragraph is found, the relevant Anti-Doping Organization shall conduct a further investigation if there are serious indications, such as a comparison to reference steroid profiles, for a possible Use of a Prohibited Substance.

If the laboratory has reported the presence of a T/E ratio greater than four (4) to one (1) in the urine, further investigation is obligatory in order to determine whether the ratio is due to a physiological or pathological condition, except if the laboratory reports an Adverse Analytical Finding based on any reliable analytical method, showing that the Prohibited Substance is of exogenous origin.

In case of an investigation, it will include a review of any previous and/or subsequent tests. If previous tests are not available, the Athlete shall be tested unannounced at least three times within a three month period.

Should an Athlete fail to cooperate in the investigations, the Athlete’s Sample shall be deemed to contain a Prohibited Substance.

Clenbuterol, zeranol, zilpaterol.

For the purposes of this section: * “exogenous” refers to a substance which is not capable of being produced by the body naturally. ** “endogenous” refers to a substance which is capable of being produced by the body naturally.

S2. HORMONES AND RELATED SUBSTANCES The following substances, including other substances with a similar chemical structure or similar biological effect(s), and their releasing factors are prohibited:

Unless the Athlete can demonstrate that the concentration was due to a physiological or pathological condition, a Sample will be deemed to contain a Prohibited Substance (as listed above) where the concentration of the Prohibited Substance or its metabolites and/or relevant ratios or markers in the Athlete’s Sample so exceeds the range of values normally found in humans that it is unlikely to be consistent with normal endogenous production.

The presence of other substances with a similar chemical structure or similar biological effect(s), diagnostic marker(s) or releasing factors of a hormone listed above or of any other finding which indicate(s) that the substance detected is of exogenous origin, will be reported as an Adverse Analytical Finding.

S3. BETA-2 AGONISTS All beta-2 agonists including their D- and L-isomers are prohibited. Their use requires a Therapeutic Use Exemption.

As an exception, formoterol, salbutamol, salmeterol and terbutaline, when administered by inhalation to prevent and/or treat asthma and exercise-induced asthma/broncho-constriction require an abbreviated Therapeutic Use Exemption.

Despite the granting of a Therapeutic Use Exemption, when the Laboratory has reported a concentration of salbutamol (free plus glucuronide) greater than 1000 ng/mL, this will be considered to be an Adverse Analytical Finding unless the athlete proves that the abnormal result was the consequence of the therapeutic use of inhaled salbutamol.

S4. AGENTS WITH ANTI-ESTROGENIC ACTIVITY The following classes of anti-estrogenic substances are prohibited.

S5. DIURETICS AND OTHER MASKING AGENTS Diuretics and other masking agents are prohibited.

Masking agents include but are not limited to: diuretics*, epitestosterone, probenecid, alpha-reductase inhibitors (e.g. finasteride, dutasteride), plasma expanders (e.g. albumin, dextran, hydroxyethyl starch).

ANNEX II STANDARDS FOR GRANTING THERAPEUTIC USE EXEMPTIONS Extract from “INTERNATIONAL STANDARD FOR THERAPEUTIC USE EXEMPTIONS” of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA); in force 1 January 2005 4.0 Criteria for granting a therapeutic use exemption A Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE) may be granted to an Athlete permitting the use of a Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method contained in the Prohibited List. An application for a TUE will be reviewed by a Therapeutic Use Exemption Committee (TUEC). The TUEC will be appointed by an Anti-Doping Organization. An exemption will be granted only in strict accordance with the following criteria: [Comment: This standard applies to all Athletes as defined by and subject to the Code i.e. able-bodied athletes and athletes with disabilities. This Standard will be applied according to an individual’s circumstances. For example, an exemption that is appropriate for an athlete with a disability may be inappropriate for other athletes.] 4.1 The Athlete should submit an application for a TUE no less than 21 days before participating in an Event.

4.2 The Athlete would experience a significant impairment to health if the Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method were to be withheld in the course of treating an acute or chronic medical condition.

4.3 The therapeutic use of the Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method would produce no additional enhancement of performance other than that which might be anticipated by a return to a state of normal health following the treatment of a legitimate medical condition. The use of any Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method to increase “low-normal” levels of any endogenous hormone is not considered an acceptable therapeutic intervention.

4.4 There is no reasonable therapeutic alternative to the use of the otherwise Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method.

4.5 The necessity for the use of the otherwise Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method cannot be a consequence, wholly or in part, of prior non-therapeutic use of any substance from the Prohibited List.

4.6 The TUE will be cancelled by the granting body, if (a) the Athlete does not promptly comply with any requirements or conditions imposed by the Anti-Doping Organization granting the exemption; (b) the term for which the TUE was granted has expired; (c) the Athlete is advised that the TUE has been withdrawn by the Anti-Doping Organization. [Comment: Each TUE will have a specified duration as decided upon by the TUEC. There may be cases when a TUE has expired or has been withdrawn and the Prohibited Substance subject to the TUE is still present in the Athlete’s body. In such cases, the Anti-Doping Organization conducting the initial review of an adverse finding will consider whether the finding is consistent with expiry or withdrawal of the TUE.] 4.7 An application for a TUE will not be considered for retroactive approval except in cases where: (a) emergency treatment or treatment of an acute medical condition was necessary; or (b) due to exceptional circumstances, there was insufficient time or opportunity for an applicant to submit, or a TUEC to consider, an application prior to Doping Control. [Comment: Medical Emergencies or acute medical situations requiring administration of an otherwise Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method before an application for a TUE can be made, are uncommon. Similarly, circumstances requiring expedited consideration of an application for a TUE due to imminent competition are infrequent. Anti-Doping Organizations granting TUEs should have internal procedures which permit such situations to be addressed.] 5.0. Confidentiality of information 5.1 The applicant must provide written consent for the transmission of all information pertaining to the application to members of the TUEC and, as required, other independent medical or scientific experts, or to all necessary staff involved in the management, review or appeal of TUEs.

Should the assistance of external, independent experts be required, all details of the application will be circulated without identifying the Athlete involved in the Athlete’s care. The applicant must also provide written consent for the decisions of the TUEC to be distributed to other relevant Anti-Doping Organizations under the provisions of the Code.

5.2 The members of the TUECs and the administration of the Anti-Doping Organization involved will conduct all of their activities in strict confidence. All members of a TUEC and all staff involved will sign confidentiality agreements. In particular they will keep the following information confidential: (a) all medical information and data provided by the Athlete and physician(s) involved in the Athlete’s care; (b) all details of the application including the name of the physician(s) involved in the process.

Should the Athlete wish to revoke the right of the TUEC or the WADA TUEC to obtain any health information on his/her behalf, the Athlete must notify his/her medical practitioner in writing of the fact. As a consequence of such a decision, the Athlete will not receive approval for a TUE or renewal of an existing TUE.

6.0 Therapeutic use exemption committees (TUECs) TUECs shall be constituted and act in accordance with the following guidelines:

6.1 TUECs should include at least three physicians with experience in the care and treatment of Athletes and a sound knowledge of clinical, sports and exercise medicine. In order to ensure a level of independence of decisions, a majority of the members of the TUEC should not have any official responsibility in the Anti-Doping Organization. All members of a TUEC will sign a conflict of interest agreement. In applications involving Athletes with disabilities, at least one TUEC member must possess specific experience with the care and treatment of Athletes with disabilities.

6.2 TUECs may seek whatever medical or scientific expertise they deem appropriate in reviewing the circumstances of any application for a TUE.

6.3 The WADA TUEC shall be composed following the criteria set out in Article 6.1. The WADA TUEC is established to review on its own initiative TUE decisions granted by Anti-Doping Organizations. As specified in Article 4.4 of the Code, the WADA TUEC, upon request by Athletes who have been denied TUEs by an Anti-Doping Organization will review such decisions with the power to reverse them.

Prilogi 1. Seznam prepovedanih snovi in postopkov – mednarodni standard 2. Standardi za priznanje terapevtskih izjem Dodatki 1. Svetovni kodeks proti dopingu 2. Mednarodni standard za laboratorije 3. Mednarodni standard za testiranje PRILOGA I SVETOVNI KODEKS PROTI DOPINGU SEZNAM PREPOVEDANIH SNOVI IN POSTOPKOV 2005 MEDNARODNI STANDARD Za uradno besedilo seznama prepovedanih snovi in postopkov skrbi WADA, objavljeno pa je v angleškem in francoskem jeziku. Če se pojavi neskladje med različico v angleškem in francoskem jeziku, prevlada različica v angleškem jeziku.

Ta seznam začne veljati 1. januarja 2005.

SEZNAM PREPOVEDANIH SNOVI IN POSTOPKOV 2005 SVETOVNI KODEKS PROTI DOPINGU Veljavno 1. januar 2005 Uporaba katerega koli zdravila mora biti omejena na medicinsko utemeljene indikacije.

SNOVI IN POSTOPKI, PREPOVEDANI VES ČAS (NA TEKMOVANJU IN ZUNAJ TEKMOVANJA) PREPOVEDANE SNOVI S1. ANABOLIČNI DEJAVNIKI Anabolični dejavniki so prepovedani.

18alfa-homo-17beta-hidroksiester-4-en-3-on, bolasteron, boldenon, boldion, kalusteron, klostebol, danazol, dehidroklorometiltestosteron, delta1-androsten-3,17-dion, delta1-androstenediol, delta1-dihidro-testosteron, drostanolon, etilestrenol, fluoksimesteron, formebolon, furazabol, gestrinon, 4-hidroksitestosteron, 4-hidroksi-19-nortestosteron, mestanolon, mesterolon, metenolon, metandienon, metandriol, metildienolon, metiltrienolon, metiltestosteron, miboleron, nandrolon, 19-norandrostenediol; 19-norandrostenedion, norboleton, norklostebol, noretandrolon, oksabolon, oksandrolon, oksimesteron, oksimetolon, quinbolon, stanozolol, stenbolon, tetrahidrogestrinon, trenbolon in druge snovi s podobno kemijsko strukturo ali podobnim biološkim učinkom ali učinki.

Kadar je prepovedana snov (navedena zgoraj) lahko tudi naravni proizvod telesa, se šteje, da vzorec vsebuje tako prepovedano snov, kadar koncentracija prepovedane snovi ali presnovka oziroma označevalca in/ali katero koli drugo razmerje ali razmerja takih snovi v športnikovem vzorcu toliko odstopajo od vrednosti, ki se po navadi najdejo pri ljudeh, da ne morejo normalno endogeno nastati. Šteje se, da vzorec ne vsebuje prepovedane snovi, če športnik dokaže, da sta lahko koncentracija prepovedane snovi ali presnovka oziroma označevalca in/ali katero koli drugo razmerje takih snovi v športnikovem vzorcu posledica fiziološkega ali patološkega stanja. Laboratorij v vsakem primeru in pri vsaki koncentraciji sporoči pozitivni laboratorijski rezultat, če lahko na podlagi zanesljive analitične metode dokaže, da je prepovedana snov eksogenega izvora.

Če laboratorijski rezultat ni dokončen in ni odkrita nobena koncentracija iz prejšnjega odstavka, ustrezna protidopinška organizacija, če obstajajo zanesljivi znaki, opravi nadaljnje preiskave, kot je primerjava referenčnih steroidnih profilov, da tako ugotovi morebitno uporabo prepovedane snovi.

Če laboratorij sporoči razmerje T/E v urinu, večje od štiri (4) proti ena (1), so nadaljnje preiskave obvezne, zato da se ugotovi, ali je razmerje posledica fiziološkega ali patološkega stanja, razen če laboratorij sporoči pozitivni laboratorijski rezultat, ki z zanesljivo analitično metodo dokazuje, da je prepovedana snov eksogenega izvora.

Če se opravi preiskava, ta vsebuje pregled morebitnih prejšnjih in/ali poznejših testov. Če prejšnji testi niso na voljo, je športnik nenapovedano testiran najmanj trikrat v obdobju treh mesecev.

Če športnik odkloni sodelovanje v preiskavah, se šteje, da njegov vzorec vsebuje prepovedano snov.

V tem razdelku: * »eksogeni« pomeni snov, ki je telo ni sposobno proizvajati po naravni poti; ** »endogeni« pomeni snov, ki jo je telo sposobno proizvajati po naravni poti.

S2. HORMONI IN SORODNE SNOVI Naslednje snovi, vključno z drugimi snovmi s podobno kemijsko strukturo ali podobnim biološkim učinkom ali učinki, in njihovi sproščajoči dejavniki so prepovedani:

Če športniku ne uspe dokazati, da je bila koncentracija posledica fiziološkega ali patološkega stanja, se šteje, da vzorec vsebuje prepovedano snov (navedeno zgoraj), kadar koncentracija prepovedane snovi ali presnovka in/ali ustreznih razmerij ali označevalcev v športnikovem vzorcu toliko presega vrednosti, ki se po navadi najdejo pri ljudeh, da ne morejo normalno endogeno nastati.

Prisotnost drugih snovi s podobno kemijsko strukturo ali podobnim biološkim učinkom ali učinki, prisotnost diagnostičnih označevalcev ali sproščajočih dejavnikov hormona, navedenih zgoraj, ali kak drug rezultat, ki kaže, da je odkrita snov eksogenega izvora, se sporoči kot pozitivni laboratorijski rezultat.

S3. AGONISTI BETA-2 Vsi agonisti beta-2 skupaj z D- in L-izomeri so prepovedani. Za njihovo uporabo se zahteva priznanje terapevtske izjeme.

Za uporabo formoterola, salbutamola, salmeterola in terbutalina v obliki inhalatorjev za preprečevanje in/ali zdravljenje astme in s fizično dejavnostjo povzročene astme/bronhospazma se izjemoma zahteva priznanje terapevtske izjeme po skrajšanem postopku.

Kljub priznanju terapevtske izjeme pa se vsaka koncentracija salbutamola (prosti in glukuronid), višja od 1000 ng/ml, ki jo sporoči laboratorij, šteje za pozitivni rezultat, če športnik ne dokaže, da je nenormalni rezultat posledica terapevtske uporabe inhaliranega salbutamola.

S4. DEJAVNIKI Z ANTIESTROGENSKIM DELOVANJEM Prepovedani so naslednji razredi snovi z antiestrogenskim delovanjem:

S5. DIURETIKI IN DRUGI MASKIRNI DEJAVNIKI Diuretiki in drugi maskirni dejavniki so prepovedani.

SPECIFICIRANE SNOVI* »Specificirane snovi«* so navedene spodaj:

PRILOGA II STANDARDI ZA PRIZNANJE TERAPEVTSKE IZJEME Izvleček iz MEDNARODNEGA STANDARDA ZA TERAPEVTSKO IZJEMO Svetovne protidopinške agencije (WADA); velja od 1. januarja 2005 4.0 Merila za priznanje terapevtske izjeme Športniku se lahko prizna terapevtska izjema, s katero se dovoljuje uporaba prepovedanih snovi ali postopkov, navedenih na seznamu prepovedanih snovi in postopkov. Vlogo za terapevtsko izjemo pregleda odbor za priznanje terapevtske izjeme (OPTI). OPTI imenuje protidopinška organizacija. Izjema se prizna izključno v skladu z naslednjimi merili: [Opomba: Ta standard velja za vse športnike, kot je opredeljeno v kodeksu in v skladu z njim, tj. za športnike in športnike invalide. Uporablja se glede na okoliščine posameznika. Na primer, izjema, ki je primerna za športnike invalide, je lahko neprimerna za druge športnike.] 4.1 Športnik mora vlogo za terapevtsko izjemo vložiti najmanj 21 dni pred udeležbo na športnem dogodku.

4.2 Za športnika bi prekinitev terapije s prepovedano snovjo ali postopkom med zdravljenjem akutnega ali kroničnega zdravstvenega stanja pomenila hujše poslabšanje zdravja.

4.3 Terapevtska uporaba prepovedane snovi ali postopka ne bi omogočila dodatnega izboljšanja športnega dosežka razen tistega, ki ga je mogoče pričakovati zaradi izboljšanja zdravstvenega stanja po zdravljenju potrjenega bolezenskega stanja. Uporaba katere koli prepovedane snovi ali postopka, zato da bi se zvišala »nizka normalna« raven endogenega hormona, se ne šteje za dopusten terapevtski poseg.

4.4 Za uporabo sicer prepovedane snovi ali postopka ni nobene druge utemeljene terapevtske možnosti.

4.5 Potreba, da se uporabi sicer prepovedana snov ali postopek, ne more ne deloma ne v celoti izhajati iz predhodne neterapevtske uporabe katere koli snovi s seznama prepovedanih snovi in postopkov.

4.6 Organ, ki prizna terapevtsko izjemo, jo prekliče, če:

Če je potrebna pomoč zunanjih neodvisnih strokovnjakov, se vsi podatki iz vloge zagotovijo brez navedbe imena in priimka obravnavanega športnika. Vlagatelj mora dati tudi pisno soglasje, da se sklepi OPTI razdelijo drugim vpletenim protidopinškim organizacijam v skladu z določbami kodeksa.

5.2 Člani OPTI in uprava protidopinške organizacije, ki obravnavajo primer, opravljajo vse dejavnosti strogo zaupno. Vsi člani OPTI in vse sodelujoče osebje podpišejo izjavo o varovanju zaupnih podatkov. Zlasti ohranjajo zaupnost naslednjih podatkov:

Če želi športnik preklicati pravico OPTI ali Odbora za priznanje terapevtske izjeme pri WADA, da pridobi njegove zdravstvene podatke, mora o tem pisno obvestiti svojega zdravnika. Posledica take odločitve je, da se športniku ne prizna terapevtska izjema ali njeno podaljšanje.

6.0 Odbori za priznanje terapevtske izjeme (OPTI) OPTI se ustanovijo in delujejo v skladu z naslednjimi smernicami:

6.1 V OPTI morajo sodelovati najmanj trije zdravniki z izkušnjami na področju oskrbe in zdravljenja športnikov ter z dobrim poznavanjem klinične medicine in medicine športa. Da bi zagotovili neodvisno sprejemanje odločitev, večina članov OPTI ne bi smela imeti nobenih uradnih dolžnosti v protidopinški organizaciji. Vsi člani OPTI podpišejo izjavo o izogibanju nasprotja interesov. Pri vlogah, ki se nanašajo na športnike invalide, mora imeti najmanj en član odbora OPTI posebne izkušnje pri oskrbi in zdravljenju športnikov invalidov.

6.2 OPTI lahko poiščejo kakršno koli medicinsko ali znanstveno mnenje strokovnjaka, ki je po njihovem mnenju potrebno pri pregledovanju okoliščin katere koli vloge za priznanje terapevtske izjeme.

6.3 Odbor za priznanje terapevtske izjeme pri WADA je sestavljen na podlagi meril, določenih v 6.1. Odbor za priznanje terapevtske izjeme pri WADA je ustanovljen, da na lastno pobudo pregleda priznanja terapevtskih izjem, ki so jih priznale protidopinške organizacije. Kot je določeno v četrtem odstavku 4. člena kodeksa, Odbor za priznanje terapevtske izjeme pri WADA na prošnjo športnikov, ki jim protidopinška organizacija ni priznala terapevtske izjeme, pregleda take odločitve in jih ima pravico razveljaviti.

7.0 Vloga za priznanje terapevtske izjeme Postopek 7.1 Terapevtska izjema se obravnava le po prejemu izpolnjenega obrazca, ki mu je treba priložiti vse ustrezne dokumente (glej dodatek 1 – obrazec za priznanje terapevtske izjeme). Postopek reševanja vloge mora dosledno potekati v skladu z načeli stroge zaupnosti zdravstvenih podatkov.

7.2 Obrazec ali obrazce za priznanje terapevtske izjeme, določene v dodatku 1, lahko protidopinške organizacije spremenijo, tako da vključijo dodatne zahteve po podatkih, ne smejo pa izpustiti nobenega dela ali točke.

7.3 Protidopinške organizacije lahko obrazec ali obrazce za priznanje terapevtske izjeme prevedejo v drug jezik ali jezike, vendar pa mora na obrazcu ostati tudi besedilo v angleškem ali francoskem jeziku.

7.4 Športnik lahko vloži vlogo za priznanje terapevtske izjeme le pri eni protidopinški organizaciji. V vlogi je treba navesti športnikovo panogo, ter če je potrebno, disciplino in poseben položaj ali vlogo.

7.5 V vlogi je treba navesti morebitne prejšnje in/ali sedanje prošnje, da se dovoli uporaba sicer prepovedane snovi ali postopka, organ, na katerega je bila prošnja naslovljena, in njegovo odločitev.

7.6 Vlagatelj mora predložiti celovito zdravstveno anamnezo in rezultate pregledov, laboratorijskih preiskav in slikanj, ki se nanašajo na vlogo.

7.7 Morebitne dodatne preiskave, pregledi ali slikanja, ki jih zahteva odbor OPTI ali protidopinška organizacija, se opravijo na stroške vlagatelja ali njegove nacionalne športne zveze.

7.8 Vloga mora vsebovati izjavo ustrezno usposobljenega zdravnika, ki potrjuje potrebo po uporabi sicer prepovedane snovi ali postopka pri zdravljenju športnika ter opisuje, zakaj pri zdravljenju tega stanja ni mogoče ali ne bi bilo mogoče uporabiti nadomestnega dovoljenega zdravila.

7.9 Navesti je treba odmerek, pogostost, način in trajanje uporabe sicer prepovedane snovi ali postopka.

7.10 Odločitve mora OPTI sprejeti v 30 dneh od prejema celotne dokumentacije, ustrezna protidopinška organizacija pa z njimi pisno seznani športnika. Kadar se terapevtska izjema prizna športniku, vključenemu v skupino športnikov za nenapovedane dopinške kontrole, se temu športniku in WADA takoj pošlje odobritev, ki vsebuje podatke o trajanju izjeme in pogojih, povezanih s priznanjem terapevtske izjeme.

7.11 (a) Ob prejemu športnikove prošnje v pregled, kot je določeno v četrtem odstavku 4. člena kodeksa, lahko Odbor za priznanje terapevtske izjeme pri WADA, kot je določeno v četrtem odstavku 4. člena kodeksa, razveljavi odločitev o priznanju terapevtske izjeme, ki jo je priznala protidopinška organizacija. Športnik pošlje Odboru za priznanje terapevtske izjeme pri WADA vse podatke za priznanje terapevtske izjeme, ki jih je prvotno predložil protidopinški organizaciji, skupaj s pristojbino za vlogo. Dokler pregled ni končan, velja prvotna odločitev. Postopek ne sme trajati več kot 30 dni od dneva, ko WADA prejme podatke. (b) WADA lahko začne pregled kadar koli. Odbor za priznanje terapevtske izjeme pri WADA konča pregled v 30 dneh.

7.12 Če je odločitev o priznanju terapevtske izjeme po pregledu razveljavljena, ta razveljavitev ne velja za nazaj in ne razveljavi športnikovih dosežkov v obdobju, v katerem je bila terapevtska izjema priznana, in začne veljati najpozneje 14 dni po tem, ko je športnik uradno obveščen o odločitvi.

8.0 Vloga za priznanje terapevtske izjeme Skrajšani postopek 8.1 Priznava se, da se nekatere snovi, navedene na seznamu prepovedanih snovi in postopkov, uporabljajo za zdravljenje zdravstvenih stanj, ki so med športniki pogosta. V takih primerih vloga iz 4. in 7. razdelka ni potrebna. Zato je uveden skrajšani postopek za priznanje terapevtske izjeme.

8.2 Prepovedane snovi ali postopki, ki se s tem skrajšanim postopkom lahko dovolijo, so strogo omejeni na naslednje: agonisti beta-2 (formoterol, salbutamol, salmeterol in terbutalin) z inhalacijo in glukokortikosteroidi z nesistemsko uporabo.

8.3 Za uporabo ene od navedenih snovi športnik pošlje protidopinški organizaciji zdravniško mnenje, ki utemeljuje potrebo po zdravljenju. Tako zdravniško mnenje iz dodatka 2 navaja diagnozo, ime zdravila, odmerek, način uporabe in trajanje zdravljenja. Če je primerno, so navedene tudi vse preiskave, opravljene za postavitev diagnoze (brez dejanskih rezultatov ali podrobnih podatkov).

8.4 Skrajšani postopek poteka na naslednji način:
