Hydrocortisone 21-Aldehyde Hydrate usage and description
Hydrocortisone 21-Aldehyde Hydrate is a synthetic steroid hormone that is commonly used as an anti-inflammatory agent. It is a derivative of the natural hormone cortisol, which is produced by the adrenal gland. Hydrocortisone 21-Aldehyde Hydrate works by reducing the production of prostaglandins, which are responsible for causing inflammation in the body.
This medication is typically administered topically, as a cream or ointment, and is used to treat a variety of inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. It is also used to treat allergic reactions, insect bites, and sunburn.
Chemically, Hydrocortisone 21-Aldehyde Hydrate is a white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and has a molecular weight of 402.5. It is classified as a glucocorticoid, which means it works by binding to the glucocorticoid receptor in cells and altering gene expression.
While generally considered safe when used as directed, Hydrocortisone 21-Aldehyde Hydrate can cause side effects such as skin irritation, thinning of the skin, and increased risk of infection. It is not recommended for use in pregnant or breastfeeding women, as it can pass through breast milk and potentially harm a developing fetus. It should also not be used on open wounds or areas of the skin with active infections.
