Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC50/Ki
Glucocorticoid receptor [1]
In vitro

Fluorometholone Acetate is a synthetic corticosteroid, used in the treatment of steroid responsive inflammatory conditions of the eye. [1]

In vivo

Hourly topical administration of the drug suspension produces an average reduction of 46.8% in the polymorphonuclear leukocytes invading the corneal stroma. In the cornea, fluorometholone acetate appears to have a greater efficacy, as compared to fluorometholone alcohol, for reducing the number of leukocytes invading that tissue following an inflammatory stimulus. Animal toxicity studies of fluorometholone, including acute intraperitoneal LD50s in mice and rats, subacute oral toxicity in rats and dogs, and subacute topical ocular toxicity in rabbits have demonstrated the safety of this drug for human use.
