DEXAMETHASONE SODIUM PHOSPHATE - DEXAMETHASONE SODIUM PHOSPHATE INJECTION GLAND PHARMA LIMITED ---------- DEXAMETHASONE SODIUM PHOSPHATE - DEXAMETHASONE SODIUM PHOSPHATE INJECTION, SOLUTION DEXAMETHASONE SODIUM PHOSPHATE INJECTION RX ONLY DESCRIPTION Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Injection, USP is a water-soluble inorganic ester of dexamethasone which produces a rapid response even when injected intramuscularly. Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate, USP C H FNa O P, has a molecular weight of 516.4 and chemically is 9-fluoro-11β, 17, 21-trihydroxy-16α-methylpregna-1,4-diene- 3,20-dione, 21-(dihydrogen phosphate) disodium salt. It occurs as a white to practically white powder, is exceedingly hygroscopic, is soluble in water and its solutions have a pH between 7.5 and 9.5. It has the following structural formula: Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Injection, USP is available in 4 mg/mL and 10 mg/mL concentrations. Each mL of Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Injection USP, 4 mg/mL contains dexamethasone sodium phosphate, USP equivalent to 4 mg of dexamethasone phosphate; 11 mg sodium citrate anhydrous; 1 mg sodium sulfite; 10 mg benzyl alcohol (preservative); water for injection, q.s. NaOH and/or citric acid monohydrate to adjust pH if necessary. Each mL of Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Injection USP, 10 mg/mL (PRESERVATIVE FREE) contains dexamethasone sodium phosphate, USP equivalent to 10 mg dexamethasone phosphate; 24.75 mg sodium citrate, dihydrate; and Water for Injection, q.s. pH adjusted with citric acid or sodium hydroxide, if necessary. pH: 7.0 to 8.5. 22 28 2 8 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. Glucocorticoids cause profound and varied metabolic effects. In addition, they modify the body’s immune responses to diverse stimuli. INDICATIONS AND Lestu allt skjalið
