The inhaler may be USADA approved but you cannot use it during the fight.

It just means that when they do testing they are aware that certain things from the inhaler will possibly present.

It doesn't mean you can use it during a fight!

As of 2018, there are three inhaled beta-2 agonists that are permitted under a certain dose:
  • Inhaled albuterol (also called salbutamol): maximum 1600 micrograms over 24 hours in divided doses, not to exceed 800 micrograms over 12 hours starting from any dose;

Each inhaled is 90mcg.



HOW THE HELL DO THEY TELL IF YOU ARE OVER THE LIMIT?!?!?! Urinary and blood measurements are incredibly inaccurate for this.

not during the usada era
I am sure it was something sketchy
those images it was supposedly "oxygen"

of course even if approved it allows for fuckery and a switch of inhaler cart

not a fan of it but USADA is not and hasn't been on the level as we know...easily corruptible

I don't like Stephens but after the shit Yair pulled following the eye poke I wouldn't mind seeing Jeremy knock him the fuck out

I can find no specifics on whether there is an in competition versus out of competition limit on a USADA approved drug. Theoretically, you could drink a cup of black coffee or pop a caffeine pill between rounds apparently.

Inhaler, below limit may be allowed for all. TUE maybe for others.

Hilarious.
Please, all MMA fighters start hitting inhalers between rounds.

sounds perfect
and exactly what they are counting on

USADA and UFC will create/allow loopholes for fighters they favor
