Dexamethasone (Omega) 4mg/ml, 5ml, MD - 5 Vials/Box

After administration of the injection, Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate is rapidly converted into Dexamethasone. This is a synthetic glucocorticoid which has seven times the anti-inflammatory potency of prednisolone. Like glucocorticoids, Dexamethasone has other anti-allergic, anti-toxic, anti-shock, anti-pyretic and immunosuppressive properties. Dexamethasone has practically no water and salt-retaining properties and is, therefore, particularly suitable for use in patients with cardiac decompensation or hypertension. Because of the long biological half-life (36 to 54 hours), Dexamethasone is esp ecially suitable in condition where a continuous glucocorticoid action is desired.
