In October 2016 United Kingdom Anti-Doping (UKAD) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Athlete Drew Priday after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance metenolone.
After notification a provisional suspension was ordered. The Athlete gave a prompt admission of the violation and filed a statement in his defence.
The Athlete stated that he had used a purchased product Parabolon 100 as recommended by a friend and he injected the substance on separate occasions for a total of three weeks without intention to enhance his sport performance.
However the analysis report of the product Parabolon 100 showed that it contained the prohibited substance trenbolone and not the substance metenolone.
UKAD rejected the Athlete’s explanation about how the prohibited substance entered his system and that the violation was not intentional.
Considering the Athlete’s prompt admission UKAD decides on 21 April 2017 to impose a 3 year and 8 month period of ineligibility on the Athlete starting on the date of the provisional suspension, i.e. on 19 October 2016.
