The Russian medal winning curler Alexander Krushelnitsky, is the latest athlete to have failed a drugs test. Krushelnitsky is suspected to have tested positive for Meldonium which is a drug that is thought to help treat coronary artery disease. This substance was banned in 2016 as it is designed to expand your arteries to increase blood flow, thus increasing the amount of oxygen throughout the body.
