Cortisone injection


Recommended Posts

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.

you may not compete for 10 days.

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.

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
