Pharmacological TUE
A Pharmacological Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE) allows an athlete to use a prohibited medication or substance for a legitimate medical condition without penalty. It ensures that athletes with validated health issues aren't unfairly penalized for necessary treatments. To obtain a TUE, an athlete must provide thorough medical documentation proving the medication is essential and that its use won't provide an unfair advantage. The process is carefully regulated to maintain fairness in sports while prioritizing the athlete's health.
