The full Canada answerOSKM Cyclic Partial Reprogramming in sport and the military
Whether OSKM Cyclic Partial Reprogramming is banned in sport is set by the World Anti-Doping Code and by military rules, not by its legal status. Before you compete or get tested, look up OSKM Cyclic Partial Reprogramming by name on the Prohibited List, or look up a named product in Global DRO. Under the World Anti-Doping Code, category S0 bans, at all times, any drug-like substance that meets two tests. No other section of the List covers it. And no government health regulator anywhere has a current approval for it as a treatment in people. Many substances that are approved somewhere are banned by name in another section. So approval does not mean a substance is allowed in sport.

- Global DRO (check a named product)
- USADA (US athletes)
- Operation Supplement Safety (US service members)
