    Default OTC Diuretics banned in IDFA?

    If you can buy say Cytogenix Taraxatone from supplements Canada, would that be banned in the IDFA?

    You can use Taraxatone because it's a herbal diuretic. Those are fine.

    Are any of these included in the Taraxatone?

    Diuretics include:
    Acetazolamide, amiloride, bumetanide, canrenone, chlorthalidone,
    etacrynic acid, furosemide, indapamide, metolazone, spironolactone,
    thiazides (e.g. bendroflumethiazide, chlorothiazide, hydrochlorothiazide),
    triamterene, and other substances with a similar chemical structure or similar
    biological effect(s) (except drosperinone, pamabrom and topical dorzolamide and
    brinzolamide, which are not prohibited).

    Recommended Use: Start taking Taraxatone 5 days out from when you want to see your competition-ready muscle definition. Take one serving (3 capsules) with a glass of water twice daily; one serving in the morning and the second serving in the afternoon or evening. Increase your water intake during the first 3 days of using Taraxatone. For the last 2 days of using Taraxatone, significantly reduce your water intake to achieve peak muscle definition.

    Taraxatone™ should be taken for a maximum of 5 consecutive days, after which you should take 7 days off before starting another 5-day cycle. For best results, use Taraxatone™ in combination with an intense exercise and nutrition program. Due to potency of this product, do not exceed 6 capsules in a 24-hour period.

    Hugheser, as I said before it's a herbal diuretic. Nate was nice enough to post the ingredients. I've competed with IDFA before and MANY other natural federations with drug testing, so yes, Taraxatone is safe.

    The diuretics you have listed are the banned ones! Don't use those!
