• Larisa Peleshenko (RUS) originally won the shot put and was awarded the gold medal, but was later disqualified for doping.
• Lyubov Kremlyova (RUS) originally came third in the 1500 metre and was awarded the bronze medal, but was later disqualified for doping.
• Violeta Beclea (ROU) originally came 4th in the 1500 metre, and seemed to be in line of an upgrade to bronze medalist after Kremlyova's disqualification, but she too was disqualified for doping.
