In May 2014 2013 the International Skating Union (ISU) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Swedish Athlete Erik Wetterdal after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance terbutaline.
The Athlete admitted the use of the substance and submitted a TUE, issued by the Swedisch Sports Confederation, which was previously not submitted for recognition by the ISU.
The Athlete needed an application for an ISU TUE, in addition to the Swedish TUE, but it was unclear for the Athlete whether he or de Swedisch Federation should make the application. Therefore no application was filed for an ISU TUE when the Athlete tested positive for the substance terbutaline.
The Athlete mentioned the substance on the Doping Control Form and showed his Swedisch TUE to the Doping Control Officer.
The Panel concludes that the Athlete used prescribed medication to cure his disease with a Swedish TUE and without intention to enhance his sport performance. Due to the degree of fault of the Athlete is low the ISU Disciplinary Commission decides on 3 July 2014 to impose a reprimand and a warning with disqualification of his results obtained at the Championships of 8 March 2014.
