----------
HYDROCORTISONE ACETATE 25MG
Hydrocortisone acetate is a corticosteroid designed chemically as
pregn-4-ene-3, 20-dione, 21-
(acetyloxy)-11, 17-dihydroxy-(11ß) with the following structural
formula:
C23H32O6
Each suppository for rectal administration contains hydrocortisone
acetate, USP 25 mg in a specially
blended hydrogenated vegetable base.
In normal subjects, about 26% of hydrocortisone acetate is absorbed
when the hydrocortisone acetate
suppository is applied to the rectum. Absorption of hydrocortisone
acetate may vary across abraded or
inflamed surfaces. Topical steroids are primarily effective because of
their anti-inflammatory, anti-
pruritic and vasoconstrictive action.
Hydrocortisone acetate suppositories are indicated for use in inflamed
hemorrhoids, post-irradiation
(factitial) proctitis, as an adjunct in the treatment of chronic
ulcerative colitis, cryptitis, other
inflammatory conditions of anorectum, and pruritus ani.
Hydrocortisone acetate suppositories are contraindicated in those
patients having a history of
hypersensitivity to hydrocortisone acetate or any of the components.
Do not use hydrocortisone acetate suppositories unless adequate
proctologic examination is made. If
irritation develops, the product should be discontinued and
appropriate therapy instituted.
In the presence of an infection, the use of an appropriate antifungal
or antibacterial agent should be
instituted. If a favorable response does not occur promptly,
hydrocortisone acetate should be
discontinued until the infection has been adequately controlled.
