Abstract

The fight against doping in the equine world has two distinct approaches, whether it concerns illicit substances or molecules legitimately used in equine therapy but possessing a doping character. Senegal, being in the process of setting up routine doping control in equestrian disciplines, is taking the paths already established. However, the name medication control not being routine in Senegal, this article written in three sessions, aims to recall this aspect which is intimately linked to the known common expression "doping control" known in this country. To do this, the first session is devoted to doping in the equestrian world with a reminder of the evolution of the definition of doping, the types of doping and the classes of substances used in doping in horses. Then, the second session is kept for anti-doping and medication control. Recommendations to each of the players involved in horse racing ended the third session of this article.

Keys Words: Anti-doping, medication control, horse racing players, Senegal
