Kamila reportedly tested positive for Trimetazidine, which is often used to treat chest pain.
A Russian journalist named Vasily Konov says that the sample was taken two months ago. He wrote on social media, “The drug trimetazidine does not help an athlete in any way. At all. It was found in one single sample in December. A minuscule amount. Nothing in her samples before or since. There is no doping in the conventional sense. No! This cardiac drug has no impact on … performance. Now leave Kamila in peace.”
Earlier in the week, Kamila became the first woman to land a quad at the Olympic Games and she did it twice during her program. Watch the video!
Back in 2019, Russia was banned from international competition, including the Olympics, for four years over a doping controversy. Athletes from Russia who were not implicated in doping have been competing under the Russian Olympic Committee.
