take the risk anyway because they don’t want to lose their hair

Another one bites the dust! The basketball player Ahmet Coskun has failed a drug test in the Paralympics. Ahmet Coskun who comes from Germany was prevented from continuing to play by the The German National Paralympic Committee when the results of his testing were made public. The drug which he tested positive for was not actually a performance enhancing drug but the hair loss medication Propecia. Propecia is on the banned drugs list because it can disguise and mask the taking of other performance enhancing drugs like steroids.

Ukmedix News has reported on numerous cases where athletes have been banned from participating in their respective sports due to the use of this hair loss drug. Some of the athletes know that the drug is banned but take the risk anyway because they don’t want to lose their hair. Other athletes claim that they were unaware that something as simple as a hair loss medication could be on the list of banned substances.

There have been increasing calls for the Propecia drug to be taken off the list provided that anyone who uses it informs the relevant authorities that they are using it for hair loss. It is a shame that athletes are being penalised for taking a drug which does not actually boost their performance in any way, and it is also a shame that they are restricted from using what is without a doubt the most effective hair restoration remedy on the market today.

The hair restoration drug Propecia is used by over 4 million men worldwide and is credited with completely preventing hair loss in the majority of patients. The hair loss drug Propecia is a prescription medication which is suitable for the vast majority of men who suffer from male pattern baldness.
