In October 2018 the South African Institute for Drug-Free Sport (SAIDS) has reported and anti-doping rule violation against the bodybuilder Andrea Amier after her sample tested positive for the prohibited substances Clenbuterol, Hydrochlorothiazide, Oxandrolone and Tamoxifen. After notification a provisional suspension was ordered.
SAIDS deems that the test result establish the presence of prohibited substances and accordingly that the Athlete committed an anti-doping rule violation. SAIDS holds that the Athlete failed to respond to the communications submitted by SAIDS and consequently that she failed to demonstrate that the violation was not intentional.
Therfore SAID decides on 14 November 2018 to impose a 4 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete starting on the date of the provisional suspension, i.e. on 29 October 2018.
