Properties and stability

Stable properties under normal temperature and pressure

Storage method

This product should be sealed and stored in a cool, dry place.

Synthesis method

1. It can be separated from adrenal gland extract, and can also be prepared from bile acid and yam saponin.

Purpose

1. Mainly used for replacement treatment of adrenal insufficiency, but now hydrocortisone has been given priority for this disease. Because cortisone itself is inactive and must first be converted into hydrocortisone in the liver, certain liver diseases will affect the reliability of its action.

2.The medicine is easily absorbed by the skin and is used for the physical therapy of acute and chronic eczema, pruritus and various dermatitis. It is also used in lotions, creams and hair tonics to regulate the balance of electrolytes and water in the body, as well as the metabolism of sugar and protein. It has anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic and anti-granulation effects.
