The Féderation Internationale de Natation (FINA) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Swimmer after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substances prednisone and prednisolone.
After notification by FINA the Swimmer filed a statement in his defence and was heard for the FINA Doping Panel in April 2013.
The Swimmer stated he had used a prescribed medication Prelone because of respiratory difficulties as an emergency treatment which contained the prohibited substances. His medical specialist assured the Swimmer that the medication contained no prohibited substance. The Swimmer also checked the WADA Prohibited List. These facts were confirmed in a written statement by his medical specialist.
The Panel consideres Swimmer’s statement and the circumstances and concludes he had no intention to enhance performance. Therefore the FINA Doping Panel decides to impose a 6 month period of ineligibility on the Swimmer starting on the date of the decision, i.e. 14 June 2013.
