Artidexa

Steroidal anti-inflammatory drug Benefits: The primary action of dexamethasone is to suppress the inflammatory response by rapidly and effectively reducing the intensity of vasodilation or hyperemia, exudation, and and leukocyte infiltration—which are among the cardinal signs of inflammation. This makes it one of the most potent anti-inflammatory drugs, with a potency 30 times greater than that of hydrocortisone used as a benchmark, making Artidexa Chinfield the treatment of choice for topical use in non-infectious joint conditions as well as in other conditions where immediate corticosteroid action is necessary.
