Chris Froome will provide whatever information is required by UCI about his use of medication for asthma during the 2017 Vuelta a Espana.
A urine test revealed a concentration of Salbutamol double the WADA threshold, Team Sky have said in a statement.
Team Sky say Froome experienced 'acute asthma symptoms' during the final week of the Vuelta and increased his dosage of Salbutamol on the advice of the Team Sky doctor.

The four-time Tour de France winner conducted a urine test on September 7 which revealed a concentration of Salbutamol of 2,000 nanograms, twice the WADA threshold of 1,000.
The Team Sky statement said the 'use of permissible dosages of Salbutamol can sometimes result in elevated urinary concentrations, which require explanation'.
Froome said: 'The UCI is absolutely right to examine test results and, together with the team, I will provide whatever information it requires.'
