WHAT DEXAMETHASONE PANPHARMA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Dexamethasone PANPHARMA 3.3 mg/ml, solution for injection contains the
active substance
dexamethasone (as sodium phosphate), which belongs to a group of
medicines called steroids
(specifically
known
as
corticosteroids).
Dexamethasone
is
a
synthetic
glucocorticoid
(adrenocortical hormone).
Corticosteroids occur naturally in the body and help to maintain
health and well-being. Synthetic
steroids such as dexamethasone work by mimicking some of their actions
to treat disease.
Corticosteroids are given to patients for a variety of conditions
where their abilities to reduce
inflammation and suppress the immune system are valuable. These
conditions may include Crohn’s
disease, asthma, shock, anaphylaxis, tuberculosis, arthritis,
osteoarthritis, and skin disorders
including acne.
Dexamethasone PANPHARMA 3.3 mg/ml is used as a treatment of
coronavirus disease 2019
(COVID-19) in adult and adolescent patients (aged 12 years and older
with body weight at least 40
kg) with difficulty breathing and need of oxygen therapy.
