Description

General description

Dexamethasone is a potent glucocorticoid which acts as an anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant for therapeutic treatments in many inflammatory and autoimmune conditions, oncology, and endocrine diseases such as Addison′s disease. Dexamethasone levels in serum or plasma are measured by LC-MS/MS for dexamethsaone suppression tests or monitoring dexamethsaone treatment regimens. This Certified Spiking Solution^® is suitable for use as starting materials in the preparation of calibrators and controls for dexamethasone testing methods by LC-MS/MS.

Application

• Controlled drug delivery systems: Hydrogel microneedles incorporating dexamethasone demonstrate a programmed mesophase transition, optimizing the controlled release of drugs for therapeutic applications. This advancement in drug delivery technology illustrates the utility of dexamethasone solution in developing innovative pharmaceutical materials (Dawud et al., 2024).
• Enhanced nasal drug administration: Bovine Serum Albumin nanoparticles, integrated with dexamethasone, highlight a novel gelling system designed to enhance nasal drug delivery. This research underscores the potential of dexamethasone solution in creating more effective and patient-friendly drug delivery modalities (Mardikasari et al., 2023).
• Sustained-release formulations: The development of polyvinyl alcohol microparticles for the sustained release of dexamethasone via a coaxial microfluidic system demonstrates the critical role of dexamethasone solution in producing precision drug delivery systems that improve therapeutic efficacy and patient compliance (Abdi Majareh et al., 2023).
• Topical drug delivery for ocular conditions: Dexamethasone-loaded chitosan nanoparticles were developed for topical application in a rabbit model of endotoxin-induced uveitis, indicating significant advancements in localized drug delivery systems using dexamethasone solutions. This application is particularly relevant in treating inflammatory eye diseases with enhanced drug delivery efficiency (Alkholief et al., 2023).
