Prednisolone Sodium Phosphate
Prednisolone Sodium Phosphate is a water-soluble ester of prednisolone, a synthetic glucocorticoid steroid with potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. Its enhanced solubility makes it suitable for injectable formulations and rapid systemic action. It is commonly used to treat various inflammatory, allergic, and autoimmune conditions, offering effective modulation of immune responses and inflammation.
Primary Uses
Pharmaceuticals
Used in intravenous and intramuscular injections for rapid treatment of acute inflammatory and allergic conditions such as asthma exacerbations, severe allergic reactions, and shock.
Administered in oral and parenteral formulations for autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus.
Utilized in ophthalmic preparations for inflammatory eye diseases.
Veterinary Medicine
Used in veterinary injections to manage inflammation and immune-mediated diseases in animals.
Secondary Uses
Clinical Research
Used in pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies involving glucocorticoids.
Diagnostic Applications
Employed in testing adrenal gland function due to its glucocorticoid activity.

Miconazole Nitrate BP
Miconazole Nitrate BP is a high-purity, pharmaceutical-grade antifungal agent conforming to British Pharmacopoeia (BP) specifications. It is widely used in the formulation of topical and oral pharmaceutical products for the treatment of fungal infections caused by dermatophytes and yeasts, including Candida species. Miconazole Nitrate functions by inhibiting the biosynthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes, leading to cell death.
This white to off-white crystalline powder is highly effective and exhibits broad-spectrum antifungal and some antibacterial activity. It is commonly utilized in creams, ointments, powders, and gel formulations.
