i don't know a thing about the drug in question except that they said it's a class 3 drug which apparently is less likely to be performance enhancing than a class 1 or class 2 drug. it also sounds like some kind of a mix up between the japanese vet and the french vet about the clearance time. nevertheless, it's an unfortunate situation which would've been much worse of course had he won.
