The Spider's lawyer says the former champ was 'administering or using a supplement for the purpose of enhancing sexual performance and testing of the supplement revealed that the supplement was contaminated with an Exogenous Anabolic Agent: Drostanolone metabolite.'

The tests also found signs of temazepam and oxazepam - which are not prohibited if the fighter receives an exemption from the NAC, which Silva did not.
