to light straw-
colored, raspberry flavored solution. Each 5 mL (teaspoonful) of
Prednisolone Sodium
Phosphate Oral Solution contains 6.7 mg prednisolone sodium phosphate
(5 mg
prednisolone base) in a palatable, aqueous vehicle. In addition, each
5 mL Prednisolone
Sodium Phosphate Oral Solution contains the following inactive

Pharmacological Category: Glucocorticoid
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Naturally occurring glucocorticoids (hydrocortisone), which also have
salt-retaining
properties, are used as replacement therapy in adrenocortical
deficiency states. Their
synthetic analogs are primarily used for their potent
anti-inflammatory effects in
disorders of many organ systems.

Prednisolone is a synthetic adrenocortical steroid drug with
predominantly glucocorticoid
properties. Some of these properties reproduce the physiological
actions of endogenous
glucocorticosteroids, but others do not necessarily reflect any of the
adrenal hormones'
normal functions; they are seen only after administration of large
therapeutic doses of
the drug. The pharmacological effects of prednisolone which are due to
its
glucocorticoid properties include:
