Betamethasone valerate binds to serum albumin and corticosteroid-binding globulin
29 L/h, steady-state volume ( Vss/FIM) of 56
The observed pharmacokinetic parameters suggested that the acetate ester, and not the phosphate ester, of betamethasone acts as a or reservoir for

Radiologists perform transforaminal selective NRB and generally use longer acting particulate steroids (triamcinolone, methylprednisolone, or betamethasone)

Betamethasone, an analog of prednisolone, has a high degree of glucocorticoid activity and a slight degree of mineralocorticoid activity
Betamethasone is used for its antiinflammatory and immunosuppressive effects in disorders of many organ systems

First, we sought to describe plasma concentrations and the pharmacokinetics of betamethasone following a single intra-articular administration of 9 mg of a betamethasone sodium phosphate/betamethasone acetate injectable suspension to exercised Thoroughbred
Betamethasone, a alog of prednisolone, has high corticosteroid activity and slight mineralocorticoid activity

Betamethasone (BET), one of many synthetic analogs of the naturally occurring glucocorticoids, is used for its antiinflammatory and immunosuppressive effects in disorders of many organ systems
1,2 This dose and treatment interval were not validated by standard pharmacology
Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetics of betamethasone in maternal and fetal circulations after maternal or fetal intramuscular administration
Animal and human studies have shown that when glucocorticoids (such as dexamethasone or betamethasone) are administered to women at risk of preterm birth, they can cross the placenta and enhance the structural maturity of developing fetal lungs, including inducing differentiation of mesenchymal tissue, accelerating production and secretion of surfactant
Betamethasone valerate should be used with caution in patients with a history of local hypersensitivity to other corticosteroids
