Miles Johns has been cleared after he was placed on a 6-month suspended following an Adderall positive test.
The United States Anti-Doping Agency announced Thursday that Johns has accepted a public warning after failing to obtain a therapeutic use exemption (TUE) for Adderall ahead of a February 2022 fight with John Castaneda at UFC Vegas 47.
Johns was suspended for six months by the Nevada State Athletic Commission due to the violation. He has since submitted a TUE request for Adderall which is prohibited.
According to USADA statements, Johns’ Adderall prescription was made by his physician to treat a medical condition. His ineligibility period ends Aug. 2022.
Johns (12-2) currently competes in the UFC’s bantamweight division, where he holds a 3-2 record. The former LFA champion lost to Castaneda in his most recent outing, but prior to that he picked up a pair of Performance of the Night bonuses with back-to-back third-round knockouts of Anderson dos Santos and Kevin Natividad.
