Patrick Schelling (born 1 May 1990 in Hemberg) is a former professional Swiss cyclist, who last rode for UCI WorldTeam Israel Start-Up Nation.[2]

It was revealed in September 2020 that Schelling had tested positive for use of terbutaline, an unauthorised asthma drug, on stage 2 of the Tour du Rwanda on 24 February. As a result of the 'non-intentional anti-doping rule violation,' Schelling was stripped of his results from this race, including a third place overall finish, and was handed a four-month suspension that retroactively began on 18 May 2020.[3] Schelling retired from professional cycling at the end of 2020.[4]
