Stimulants | Used to reduce feeling of tiredness so an athlete can train for longer
Stimulates the central nervous system (CNS) making an athlete more alert |
Irritability
Sleep deprivation Increased blood pressure Irregular and fast heartbeat |
Amphetamines
Ephedrine Cocaine Caffeine | |
Diuretics | Drugs which increase the rate of water loss from the body | Speeds up kidney function by producing more urine, reducing fluid retention and causing rapid weight loss
Often used in sports with weight categories (athletes may use it to "make the required weight" for competition) Often used as masking agents to hide the effect of other performance-enhancing drugs |
Dehydration
Possible dizziness Muscle cramps Headaches Nausea Fatigue Development of kidney illness |
|
Beta Blockers | Used as a relaxant | Athletes maintain a slow heart rate and low blood pressure - which is useful in tense situations such as competition
Calming effect also helps in high-risk sports where speed is involved |
Why do Athletes Take Performance Enhancing Drugs?[edit | edit source]
- To recover from injury more quickly
- To mask pain
- Influenced by others
- The will to win overrides the moral conscience
- A desire to be the best at all costs, especially when winning brings financial rewards
- Better results lead to better sponsors and endorsement contracts
- Desire to meet expectations of others
- Making the most of a short sporting life
- Willingness to cheat for public acclaim
- Feeling that their natural ability is not good enough
Why are Drugs Banned in Sports?[edit | edit source]
