Stockton University student-athletes are responsible for complying with NCAA drug-testing requirements and understanding the risks associated with prescription and over-the-counter medications, nutritional supplements, and dietary supplements.
The NCAA maintains banned-substance information and educational resources to help student-athletes make informed decisions. Student-athletes should understand that there is no complete list of every banned substance and should not assume that a product is permitted simply because a specific ingredient does not appear on a published list.
Before taking any new nutritional or dietary supplement, student-athletes are strongly encouraged to consult with their athletic trainer and use the NCAA/Drug Free Sport resources below.

NCAA Drug-Testing Resources

• NCAA Drug-Testing Program - Main NCAA drug-testing information and current program resources.
• NCAA Banned Substances - Current NCAA information regarding banned substance classes.
• Drug Free Sport AXIS - Resource for researching medications and supplements; member access may be required.
• Nutritional & Dietary Supplement Education - NCAA educational information regarding supplement use and associated risks.
• NCAA Drug-Testing Fact Sheet for Student-Athletes - Student-athlete-focused overview of NCAA drug testing.
• Medical Exceptions & Documentation - NCAA procedures and documentation resources for applicable medical exceptions.
• NCAA Drug-Testing Appeals Process - NCAA information regarding the drug-testing appeals process.

Medications & Supplements

Student-athletes should report prescription medications and nutritional/dietary supplements to Athletic Training. Certain prescribed medications may require medical documentation to support an NCAA medical exception.
The NCAA does not approve nutritional or dietary supplements. Supplements may contain ingredients that are not listed accurately on the product label, including substances that may be prohibited by the NCAA. Use of supplements may therefore carry risk for the student-athlete.

Questions About Drug Testing

Student-athletes with questions regarding NCAA drug testing, banned substances, medications, supplements, medical exceptions, required documentation, or the appeals process should contact Stockton University Athletic Training.
