1. There was no proof of injury.
2. It's dangerous to the fighter.
3. The fighter should be in a natural state.
“We don't allow Ibuprofen, Tylenol, or anti-inflammatories. It thins the blood and forces them to bleed even faster. You want the fighter to be in a natural state,” said Aguilar. “When the request was made to us, we made that evaluation, looked at our procedures, looked at our past decisions, and said no, this is not something we can do.”

WADA seems to be mostly concerned with steroids. But as you can see, this issue has definitely come up.
Even the World Anti-Doping Agency is taking a hard look at the usage of this drug. While the "non-steroidal" part is highlighted by those using the drugs and there are no real connections between corticosteroids and anabolic steroids, that hasn't stopped some from calling it a performance-enhancer.
Hans Geyer, the deputy director of WADA, said that he considered anti-inflammatories a "doping substance."
