Athlete Biological Passport, Steroids and Pain Killers – Does hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase inhibition by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs alter the steroid profile?
Resource description
Project Title: Athlete Biological Passport, Steroids and Pain Killers – Does hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase inhibition by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs alter the steroid profile?
Researchers: Dr. F. Botre, Dr. M. Parr
Institution: Federazione Medico Sportiva Italiana, Italy
Year accepted: 2016
Summary: In this project we focus our attention on the class of non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), that are frequently used as pain killers and antiphlogistics. As no scientific data on the influence of these inhibitory NSAIDs on urinary steroids are available from literature, the project aims in closing this gap.
