Yes they do - you are meant to disclose what you have been using.

 

 

And did she?

 

 

I don't know - but I am not sure if it changes anything at all in SAIDS eyes!

It doesnt change a thing. Per saids

A few years back my Daughter was a fairly competitive swimmer and had been tested from the age of 13 at various gala's .

 

EVERY time she had to take any form of medication we would first phone our GP and get him to confirm if it was ok or not .

 

I feel this is a small responsibility for EVERY serious athlete .

Saves a lot of ''explaining " down the line . We were also fully aware that many OTC medications have banned substances in them .

This does not work always.

I explicitly asked the doc to check and make sure.

When I got the meds at the pharmacy I checked via the app and.....jip....banned.

 

So not all doctors are created equal.  Check it yourself!

You are reading the post wrong. He was there with a competitor. He is not from SAIDS.
