New iPhone app sees ISC step up war on drugs

The news came yesterday as the ISC’s Anti-Doping Report was released, confirming three previously-announced positive results from 979 tests carried out across 37 sports in 2010.

The Med Check will help athletes to avoid using a banned substance in any prescribed or over-the-counter medications, especially as the app is available free on the Apple iTunes Store (just search for Irish Sports Council).
