Pharmacology
Celestone Chronodose is an injectable preparation containing both soluble and slightly soluble esters of betamethasone that provides anti-inflammatory, anti-rheumatic and antiallergic effects in the treatment of corticosteroid-responsive disorders. Prompt therapeutic activity in conditions responsive to corticosteroids is initiated by betamethasone sodium phosphate, a soluble ester that is absorbed quickly into tissues after injection. Sustained activity is provided by betamethasone acetate, which is only slightly soluble and affords a repository for slow absorption. The combined rapid and depot actions of these forms of betamethasone facilitate rapid control as well as steady maintenance of corticosteroid effects.
