DESCRIPTION
Hydrocortisone tablets, USP contain hydrocortisone which is a
glucocorticoid. Glucocorticoids are
adrenocortical steroids, both naturally occurring and synthetic, which
are readily absorbed from the
gastrointestinal tract. Hydrocortisone USP is white to practically
white, odorless, crystalline powder
with a melting point of about 215°C. It is very slightly soluble in
water and in ether; sparingly soluble in
acetone and in alcohol; slightly soluble in chloroform.
The chemical name for hydrocortisone is
pregn-4-ene-3,20-dione,11,17,21-trihydroxy-,(11β)-. Its
molecular weight is 362.46 and the structural formula is as outlined
below.
Hydrocortisone tablets, USP are available for oral administration in
three strengths: each tablet contains
either 5 mg, 10 mg, or 20 mg of hydrocortisone. Inactive ingredients:
colloidal silicon dioxide, lactose,
magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, sodium lauryl sulfate,
sodium starch glycolate.
ACTIONS
Naturally occurring glucocorticoids (hydrocortisone and cortisone),
which also have salt-retaining
properties, are used as replacement therapy in adrenocortical
deficiency states. Their synthetic analogs
are primarily used for their potent anti-inflammatory effects in
disorders of many organ systems.
Glucocorticoids cause profound and varied metabolic effects. In
addition, they modify the body's
immune responses to diverse stimuli.
