Hold on.
His camp is going to test/research hundreds of GNC supplements before finding something that has the substance he tested positive for and submit it to USADA proving his innocence.
You would think he should know, especially since he is an athlete. HCTZ is the generic name, maybe he is taking a brand name drug.Wouldn't he know why it was in his system if it was for a medical reason?
What is hydrochlorothiazide?
Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic (water pill) that helps prevent your body from absorbing too much salt, which can cause fluid retention.
Hydrochlorothiazide is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension).
Hydrochlorothiazide is also used to treat fluid retention (edema) in people with congestive heart failure, cirrhosis of the liver, or kidney disorders, or edema caused by taking steroids or estrogen.

Some people like to be leanHighly doubt it as I've not heard anything about him having a heart condition before. Also he would have no need for a diuretic to cut weight since he's never weighed in close to the HW limit.
I don't think an athlete will volunteer information about a health condition. However, I do agree with you. The probability that he was taking HCTZ for performance enhancing purposes is more realistic.Highly doubt it as I've not heard anything about him having a heart condition before. Also he would have no need for a diuretic to cut weight since he's never weighed in close to the HW limit.
no, so basically what you have is that they found a diuretic in his A sample.So basically he was taking a bunch of steroids and masking it with a diuretic?
@TheRuthlessOne You were saying? He tested positive for a fooking diuretic!
The fight was fookin cancelled... OVER A DIURETIC!
