Marathon Runner’s Death Blamed on Banned Drug DMAA: Research Articles
Claire Squires, 30, died in the final stretch of London marathon last year. Last week a coroner found that the drug DMAA contained in a supplement taken by Ms. Squires was most likely to blame for her death. DMAA (1,3-Dimethylamylamine) has since been banned. The journal Drug Testing & Analysis has several peer reviewed papers on the substance:
- 1,3-Dimethylamylamine (DMAA) in supplements and geranium products: natural or synthetic? (Related press release: Stimulant Marketed as “Natural” in Sports Supplement Actually of Synthetic Origin)
- Could 1,3 dimethylamylamine (DMAA) in food supplements have a natural origin?
- Prevalence and co-existence of active components of ‘legal highs’
- Benzylpiperazine: the New Zealand legal perspective
