Try try Tri Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 How long after a Cortisone injection, are you legally allowed to race?
Vetseun Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Not sure. I was on long term Cortisone treatment and was not allowed to ride at all.
JanJan Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) Chris F, is that you? As long as it is traceable, it will get you into trouble. So its quite difficult to attach a time-span on the drug. Edit: Just spoke to my GF that gives Cortisone injections daily : It has 3 days half-life, but still traceable for 2-3 weeks. Edited July 16, 2014 by JanJan Try try Tri and Meezo 2
milky4130 Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 You need to speak to Hendrik for a masking agent....oh wait don't speak to him!! Marius 1
Pulse Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 you may not compete for 10 days. Isn't this related to minimising adverse effect, not because of the possibility of positive dope test?
Sworks20 Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 Isn't this related to minimising adverse effect, not because of the possibility of positive dope test? If you have been prescribed it, its legal. However the rules state you may not compete for 10 days.
Pulse Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 WADA makes no reference to duration since used. It is only tested in-competition, and would be based on blood levels or metabolites in urine. Liver breakdown and excretion rate would vary between individuals, so I can't see a time-related (10day) rule applying seven 1
Sworks20 Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Its 10 days. I know this as I have been prescribed and queried SAIDS about it.
