Antidoping Sverige

What Antidoping Sverige does

Antidoping Sverige is Sweden's designated National Anti-Doping Organization (NADO), operating as an independent non-profit foundation headquartered in Stockholm. The organization was spun off from Riksidrottsförbundet (the Swedish Sports Confederation) in December 2020, though its operational history in doping controls extends back to 1979, with over 110,000 tests performed through 2021. It conducts approximately 3,500-4,000 doping tests annually, including in-competition and out-of-competition urine and blood sampling, supported by a biological passport program and the world's first doping detection dog (Molly, introduced in 2017). Sample analysis is performed by the IOC-accredited doping laboratory at Huddinge Hospital (accredited since 1985), with which the organization maintains a core operational partnership.

The organization delivers a broad portfolio of educational and compliance products, including the Ren vinnare e-learning platform, the Vaccinera klubben club-certification program, Antidopingsnack discussion materials, filmed lectures, specialized training for medical professionals, and adapted materials for athletes with intellectual disabilities. Operational tools include the Läkemedelssök medication database, medical exemption (TUE) processing, ADAMS-based whereabouts reporting for the registered testing pool, and a whistleblower platform. Its mandate is rooted in the WADA World Anti-Doping Code and Sweden's pioneering ratification of the UNESCO Anti-Doping Convention in 2006.

Antidoping Sverige is government-funded and provides all services free of charge to Swedish sports federations, clubs, and athletes. Its go-to-market is community-led and educational, operating through the structured Swedish sports federation system (71 Specialidrottsförbund and RF-SISU districts) rather than commercial sales. The organization is led by CEO Christine Helle and has between 11 and 50 employees. It collaborates internationally with WADA, iNADO, and the Nordic Anti-Doping Convention, and has held ISO certification since 2001.
