Corticosteroids administered to dogs during pregnancy have also resulted in other congenital anomalies, including deformed forelegs, phocomelia and anasarca.",{"id":176,"kind":177,"statement":178,"species":10,"limitation":10,"source_label":84},17352,"mechanism_of_action","CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY\nFlumethasone has been reported (1) to possess 700 times the glucocorticoid activity of cortisol (hydrocortisone) as measured in the liver glycogen deposition assay in the rat; 120 times that of cortisol in the cotton pellet assay in the rat; and also in the same animal, shows a net excretion of sodium.\nIn similar tests in rats, another report (2) showed flumethasone 730 times more potent than cortisol in the granuloma inhibition assay and 165 times the activity of cortisol in the glycogen deposition assay. The same report showed that in man, the compound possessed 7.8 times the potency of prednisolone.\nAn additional report (3) indicated that flumethasone possessed 677 times the potency of cortisol in the liver glycogen deposition test in the rat, and 30, 25, and 31 times respectively, the eosinopenic, hyperglycemic and antirheumatic potency of cortisol, as measured in man.\nVeterinary experimental studies utilizing the eosinophil depression test in normal dogs and blood glucose elevation and eosinophil depression in normal cattle as parameters of drug activity, in comparison tests involving prednisone and dexamethasone, indicate that flumethasone possesses greater anti-inflammatory and gluconeogenic activity than these compounds, on an equivalent basis.\nClinical evidence of drug potency obtained during evaluation of the compound and based upon effective\ndrug dosage levels further substantiates the above experimental findings.\nGeneral Effects of Adrenocorticoids\nThe adrenocorticoids are divided into two main classes: mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids, based on their major physiologic and pharmacologic actions.\nMineralocorticoids such as the naturally occurring desoxycorticosterone and aldosterone are mainly\nconcerned with hydration, sodium and potassium regulation and the normal renal glomerular filtration of these two electrolytes. The mineralocorticoids have little if any effect as anti-inflammatory agents, and are not widely used in medicine.\nGlucocorticoids include the naturally occurring compounds, cortisone and hydrocortisone.\nTheir major effects are as follows:\n1. Increase protein catabolism and gluconeogenesis.\n2. Depressionof lymphoid tissues, fibroblasts and eosinophils.\n3. Increase the sense of well being and tolerance to pain.\n4. Depress thyroid function and anterior pitutiary function through reciprocal influences.\n5. Influence vasoconstrictive response of the circulatory system to norepinephrine, helping to maintain blood pressure.\n6. Increase renal flow.\n7. Influence gastric HCl and pepsin production.\n8. Reduces the secretion of mucus from respiratory and enteric mucosa.\n9. Affect to some degree sodium retention and potassium excretion.\n10. Stimulate erythropoiesis and myelopoiesis.\nSynthetic analogues of cortisone and hydrocortisone containing a double bond between carbon 1 and 2 of the corticosteroid nucleus, resulted in compounds with a greatly decreased effect on electrolyte metabolism.\nAdditional molecular changes present in other synthetic corticoids presently used in medicine such as\nmethylation at carbons 6 or 16 and hydroxylation at carbon 16, have led to a further decrease in electrolyte imbalance noted with the naturally occurring glucocorticoids. Fluorination at carbon 6 and\u002For 9 have led to a marked increase in anti-inflammatory activity.\nThe synthetic glucocorticoids exhibit a marked increase in potency in that a smaller amount of drug is required to elicit the same effects seen only with large amounts of the natural glucocorticoids. It is also noted that the synthetic analogues persist for a longer period of time in the body which is believed due to their slower metabolism and excretion.",[180],{"id":181,"documentId":182,"slug":183,"name":184},822,"w6ha1c9jm6bdr9mrj7mg5l95","glucocorticoid-receptor-agonists","Glucocorticoid Receptor Agonists",[],[187],{"id":188,"documentId":189,"slug":190,"title":191},198,"bbi41b3epafdrfqu3pj77fym","otitis-externa","Otitis externa",[]]
