CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Injection, USP 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.
