Clearance must be obtained from UK Athletics when an athlete uses any of the following inhalers:
- SALBUTAMOL (Ventolin)
- TERBUTALINE (Bricanyl)
- SALMETEROL (Serevent)

Athletes should apply for clearance to use these inhalers from Dr Malcolm W Brown at UK Athletics, stating the name of the inhaler, recommended dose, the name and address of the prescribing doctor, and the expected duration of treatment.
