There will be other dismissals of Russian athletes for Meldonium

Famous basketball coach Sergei Fedorenkov said he was confident that in the future will follow the disqualification of other Russian athletes for the use of Meldonium (Mildronate).

According to experts, the use of Meldonium (Mildronate) does not affect the result. "I do not want extremely suspensions of our athletes. I am really sorry for guys, because athletes at all to do with it. They really lose their health from this hard work. But imagine, for example, how to be treated? If an athlete is sick and he needs to continue to exercise, the means to restore what? To drink water and eat some vitamine C or put injection of vitamins B12? " - Fedorenko said.

"Therefore, there were such type of drugs as Mildronate (meldonium), which barely help the body, but does not affect the result I am sure that everything is understood by those who pressure our athletes They simply made this decision.." - Fedorenko added.

He also said that the introduction of Meldonium injections to the list of banned drugs reminds him of sanctions against Russian athletes. "Many people used this drug, it is the type of Vitamine B12 injection or Actovegin. In fact, it does not carry any significant health burden. I have a feeling that this new sanctions against Russian athletes because they are mostly use Meldonium (Mildronate 500). This development of Soviet times, from Latvia I think, will soon tell us and the sea of athletes do not let go, because it also restores them overlaid on all sides "-. the coach stated.
