Clinical Trial Summary

Time to recover of Anosmia and / or ageusia and early corticosteroid use

Description:

In a study of dexamethasone kinetics in two groups of 15 patients with community-acquired pneumonia, one group was treated with dexamethasone 6 mg/day by mouth and the other with 4 mg/day intravenously. The apparent volume of distribution was 1 L/kg in both groups, but the half-life after oral administration was approximately 7 hours, and after intravenous administration 9 hours. The bioavailability of oral dexamethasone was 81% (95% CI = 54-121%). However, the biological half-life of dexamethasone is much longer, of the order of 36-54 h compared with 18-36 h for prednisolone. Time to recover of Anosmia and / or ageusia and early corticosteroid use
