TheEd,
Just a quick observation, and maybe not so useless info... I took a betadexamine tablet last night for an allergy attack that I sensed was oncoming.
I felt out of rhythm this morning and a bit lazy with the interval session....prompting me to investigate, and yes indeed, taking antihistamines could make you lethargic and interfere with some aspects of your athletic training.
Betadexamine even more so, as it contains a corticosteroid, which is prohibited in sports under the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).
