A notice from Racing Australia says the products cannot be legally supplied in Australia and must not be used on horses.

The products are:

"The possession of any of these products is an offence under Australian Rule of Racing 80E," the RA statement said.

"If a trainer is currently in possession of any of these substances, they must be removed immediately and must not be used on horses. Please refer all inquiries to your veterinary practitioners or to Randlab."
