The aim of this paper is to know the compositions in unknown medicinal-lotion and to evolution its applications. Through a variety of studies, an analysis method was established. This method mainly is that samples were first extracted and pre-treated by concentration of compositions, and then they were separated and qualitatively analyzed by multiple-instruments. These instruments involve Mass ...

Plasma cortisol (hydrocortisone) levels were measured in 42 subjects before and during administration of topical oral corticosteroids. Topical administration of 0.3-0.4 mg. of betamethasone disodium phosphate daily caused partial suppression of adrenal function in 8 out of 10 subjects tested. The adrenal function remained normal in 14 patients treated with 10 mg. of hydrocortisone hemisuccinate...

UNLABELLED To report the puzzling, rare occurrence of coexisting adrenal insufficiency and Cushing's syndrome from chronic, intermittent use of intranasal betamethasone spray. A 62-year-old male was referred to our endocrinology clinic for management of adrenal insufficiency. This previously healthy individual began to experience chronic sinus symptoms in 2007, was treated with multiple ensuing...

The effect of the immunosuppressive compound, cyclosporin A, and the corticosteroid, betamethasone, was investigated on eosinophil accumulation in guinea-pig lung tissue induced by antigen, platelet-activating factor (PAF) and leukotriene B4 (LTB4). The accumulation of eosinophils in the peribronchial area was evaluated on histological preparations. The lung sections were stained with Luna's re...

BACKGROUND Treatment of women at risk for preterm birth with repeat doses of glucocorticoids reduces neonatal morbidity but could have adverse long-term effects on cardiometabolic health in offspring. We assessed whether exposure to repeat antenatal betamethasone increased risk factors for later cardiometabolic disease in children whose mothers participated in the Australasian Collaborative Tri...

The photocatalytic degradation of betamethasone sodium phosphate was investigated in aqueoussuspensions of zinc oxide nanoparticular with diameter size 20 nm under a variety of conditions.Different parameters such as irradiation time, the amount catalyst (0.12-0.8 g LH), initialconcentration of drug (10-50 mgLjand initial pH values (ranging from 3 to II) were investigatedin the presence of vari...

PURPOSE To assess the tolerance of a baby cleanser and lotion (both lightly fragranced) on healthy, full-term neonates. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-six infant-mother pairs were enrolled in a 6-week, nonrandomized, controlled-use study that took place in the routine setting of a pediatric clinic and mothers' homes. During study weeks 1 to 6, neonates were bathed by their mother with water and...

In sheep the administration of single intramuscular injections of dexamethasone into the fetus was shown to be an effective method of initiating parturition. In a controlled trial in women who had gone beyond the 41st week of pregnancy 20 mg betamethasone in saline (six patients) or saline alone (five patients) was injected into the amniotic fluid. In the betamethasone-treated group delivery oc...

The mechanisms by which antenatal glucocorticoids facilitate postnatal circulatory function in preterm infants are uncertain but may be related to augmented angiotensinergic functions. To test the hypothesis that the effects of glucocorticoids on postnatal cardiovascular and sympathetic activity are mediated via the renin-angiotensin system, we studied the effects of AT(1) receptor blockade on ...
