DESCRIPTION:
Dexamethasone sodium phosphate is a water-soluble inorganic ester of
dexamethasone. It occurs as a
white or slightly yellow crystalline powder, is odorless or has a
slight odor of alcohol, is exceedingly
hygroscopic and is freely soluble in water.
Dexamethasone sodium phosphate is an adrenocortical steroid
anti-inflammatory drug.
Chemically, dexamethasone sodium phosphate is
9-Fluoro-11ß,17,21-trihydroxy-16α-methylpregna-1,
4-diene-3,20-dione 21-(dihydrogen phosphate) disodium salt and has the
following structural formula:
Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Injection, USP is a sterile solution of
dexamethasone sodium
phosphate in water for injection for intravenous (IV), intramuscular
(IM), intra-articular, soft-tissue or
intralesional use.
Each mL contains dexamethasone sodium phosphate equivalent to
dexamethasone phosphate 4 mg or
dexamethasone 3.33 mg; benzyl alcohol 10 mg added as preservative;
sodium citrate dihydrate 11 mg;
sodium sulfite 1 mg as an antioxidant; Water for Injection q.s. Citric
acid and/or sodium hydroxide may
have been added for pH adjustment (7.0 to 8.5). Air in the container
is displaced by nitrogen.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY:
Dexamethasone sodium phosphate has a rapid onset but short duration of
action when compared with
less soluble preparations. Because of this, it is suitable for the
treatment of acute disorders responsive
to adrenocortical steroid therapy.
Naturally occurring glucocorticoids (hydrocortisone and cortisone),
which also have salt-retaining
properties, are used as replacement therapy in adrenocortical
deficiency states. Their synthetic
analogs, including dexamethasone, 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 sti
