Pharmacokic

fluorometholone is a synthetic corticosteroid (glucocorticoid), a derivative of desoxyprednisolone. Fluorometholone is one of the steroids often used to treat eye inflammation.

Glucocorticoids attached to cytoplasmic receptors and control the synthesis of intermediate substances that cause inflammation thereby losing inflammatory reactions (swelling, destruction of fibrin, capillary dilatation).

Despite the use of small eye corticosteroids, glaucoma in both normal glaucoma patients and patients with glaucoma, fluorometholone less glaucoma than other drugs such as dexamethasone. One study showed that after 6 weeks of treatment, fluorometholone increased less glaucoma than dexamethasone (dexamethasone: an average increase of 9 mmHg and fluorometholone: an average increase of 3 mmHg).

Dynamic pharmacokinetics

When the eye of Fluorometholone is 0.1% is marked with radioactive, the peak concentration of radioactive active ingredients in the aquatic fluid is achieved after 30 minutes. The metabolic substance of fluorometholone has high concentrations in both aquarium and cornea showing fluorometholone is strongly metabolized when penetrating into the cornea and aquarium.

Using steroids after cataract surgery can slow down the healing process and increase the risk of blisters.

General caution

Doctors should only start prescribing or reusing Eporon at a dose of over 20 ml when examining patients with the help of microscopes, such as microbiological screening with slot lights and if necessary, Fluorescein dye. If signs and symptoms do not improve after 2 days, patients should be re -examined.

Cortex infections tend to be due to long -term steroids. It is necessary to think about corneal fungal infections if you see persistent corneal ulcer in patients who have or are taking corticosteroids. If possible, mushroom transplant should be monitored and treated.
