Purpose matters to every female athlete who dares to dream big - despite the odds - and chooses to put all her effort into training every day. Those athletes’ passion and ambition have already changed realities and will inspire future generations to dream bigger and to fight for a greater purpose. Purpose matters to Grifols, too. That’s why we have been working passionately for 115 years to ensure access to plasma therapies for those who need them. It all started with a big and ambitious dream by one of our founders: to improve human health and society. Purpose matters, especially one that can improve society. ⚽ That’s why we are proud to sponsor the UEFA Women's Champions League and keep pursuing a better future for everyone. Let’s all #DreamBig. #PurposeMatters. #UWCL #GrifolsSocialInitiatives

Attention athletes and sports professionals! As of 01/01/2022, local steroid injections into joints are now prohibited during competition. However, athletes can still apply for therapeutic use of exception when the last dose is administered within seven days of competition via oral, IV, or rectal routine. Additionally, when administered by intramuscular injection, athletes can apply for therapeutic use of exception within eight weeks of competition. It's important to note that athletes requiring intraarticular injection of a steroid are only required to apply for therapeutic use of exception when there is doping control in competition or they are required to complete an adverse analytical finding from when glucocorticoid is detected. Stay informed and stay on top of your game. For more information, check out the references below. References: - Sportintegrity.gov.au.
