No what's even better is if all Medical Protocols worldwide just all of sudden quit the long history of IV administration to treat dehydrated patients because doctors and nurses and insurance agencies can just say, ''hey just go drink some water! Intravenous blood stream administration is the same protocol as to how the stomach filters out general water into the system. Go home you'll be fine!''
Anybody knows, or those that have taken an IV in their lifetime, the effects of IV for the body vs just drinking water. The human body has its own supply of vitamin and salt reserves to help the body function. When you're dehydrated by just drinking takes WAY TOO long for the body to re-energize all balanced vitamins and minerals. That's just fact. For fighters as per WADA's code: Wait for IT!
''In sports with weight classifications, athletes may be encouraged to undertake significant, accelerated weight loss to qualify for a competition and then use IV infusion to rapidly rehydrate. This practice invokes issues of athlete health and safety.
An IV infusion or injection is the supply of fluid and/or prescribed medication by means of a syringe or “butterfly” needle, directly into a vein. Infusions or injections of 50 mL or less per a 6-hour period are permitted unless the infused/injected substance is on the Prohibited List.''
According to the bold, 50ml is the accepted dosage, so the point that MisanthropicNY was making is correct. They said that the dosage was 750ml.
My question is, did the TUE apply to the method (IV) and the dosage ?
I just want to know that USADA considered everything when they investigated the issue.
If the TUE covered the legal aspect regarding both the IV and the dosage, then the only issue is, why was the rehydration required?
So if USADA also considered that issue during their investigation..... then I am satisfied, and I am out of here..... coz its the weekend b1tchesssss.Comment

''Mayweather also applied for, and was given, a the****utic use exemption (TUE) for rehydration purposes after the May 1 weigh-in. He took two separate mixes. The first was a mixture of 250 ml of saline and multi-vitamins. The second was a 500 ml mixuture of saline and Vitamin C. He was urine tested both before and after taking the solutions.
Nevada rules permit the mixes that Mayweather took, but because USADA was overseeing the testing he applied for and was granted the TUE for them.
All tests came back negative.''
By the way, Kevin Iole and Hauser are friends! =)

The official investigation cleared Mayweather, nothing is sinking.
It is overblown rubbish, and will almost certainly amount to nothing.Comment

''If a non-prohibited substance is infused or injected without a concurrent hospital admission, surgical procedure or clinical investigation; a TUE must be submitted for this Prohibited Method if more than 50 mL of fluid per a 6-hour period is infused or injected.
If a Prohibited Substance is administered via IV infusion or injection a TUE
application must be submitted for the Prohibited Substance regardless of
whether the infusion is less than 50 mL or the setting/circumstances under
which it is administered. In situations of medical emergency or clinical time
constraints, a retroactive TUE application is acceptable (ISTUE 2015 article 4.3).''Comment
