Well, since those drugs are illegal in most places, it would make sense that they would be disqualified for any drugs. Except for like regular medication.

only for ones that help them cheat but most drugs help them cheat anyway.

Answer 6

A few years back a Canadian gold medal winner lost his gold because he tested positive for marijuana. Smoking a joint never enhanced anyone's performance.
