What is Betamethasone Sodium Phosphate?
Active Ingredients: Betamethasone Sodium Phosphate
Betamethasone Sodium Phosphate Injection is a steroid drug used to treat conditions associated with inflammation, such as asthma, arthritis, allergies, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis. It is used in the treatment of many types of disorders, such as those of the blood, skin, liver, eye, or nervous system.
Injections of Betamethasone are typically given when a patient is unable to take the oral form. This medication is also given to pregnant women at risk for preterm delivery to reduce the risk of breathing problems in newborns.
Betamethasone is a moderately potent glucocorticoid steroid with anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. Unlike other drugs with these effects, Betamethasone does not cause water retention. Betamethasone is sometimes used in conjunction with antihistamines to reduce irritation.
