Pharmacology
Dexamethasone, Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (SAID), is a powerful anti-inflammatory, analgesic and anti allergic drugs. It stabilizes individual cells and their internal structure so that they do not release the substances which initiate or perpetuate the irritation, pain and swelling referred to as inflammation. Dexamethasone inhibits the synthesis of Prostaglandin (PG), Interleukin (IL) and Platelet Activating Factor (PAF) by inhibiting cycloxyginase & lipoxyginase pathway of inflammatory process.
