Mopidon
Mopidon® Solution is a combination of synthetic glucocorticoid (dexamethasone) and antihistamine
(chlorpheniramine maleate). Dexamethasone:
- Has a potent anti- inflammatory effect (7 times the potency of prednisolone).
- Lacks the sodium–retaining properties of hydrocortisone due to its insignificant mineralocorticoid activity.
- Inhibits the inflammatory response whatever the cause is; chemical, traumatic, infectious or immunological.
- Reduces capillary permeability and local edema by inhibiting the release of chemical mediators.
- Suppresses allergic responses.
Chlorpheniramine maleate:
- Chlorpheniramine maleate is one of the most potent antihistamines with a rapid action.
- Antagonizes the physiological action of histamine by acting as an H1-receptor blocking agent.
- Controls the allergic reaction associated with rhinitis, bronchial asthma, dermatological disorders and other allergic conditions.
