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.
