Ryan Lochte Suspended By USADA After Sharing Photo of Banned IV Treatment
Ryan Lochte has been suspended from swimming competition until next July by USADA. According to the anti-doping agency, Lochte did not use a banned substance, but did use a banned treatment method. In May, Lochte shared a photo of himself getting an IV — this is not allowed except when hospitalized or receiving an exemption.
(I looked through Lochte’s Instagram and Twitter to see if I could find this photo, but it’s either been scrubbed or was an IG story which scrubs itself.)
