[Antenatal administration of betamethasone. Effects upon neonatal blood glucose in premature infants (author's transl)].

This effect was studied in 23 preterm neonates at the age of 2--8 hours. Betamethasone was administered at a dose of 12 mg intramuscular once or several times before delivery. This glycemia was compared with the glycemia of 52 control preterm infants studied at the same period. In the control preterm neonates, the mean (+/- 1 S.D.) blood glucose level was 0.51 +/- 0.26 g/l versus 0.53 +/- 0.24 g/l in the preterm infants pretreated with betamethasone. The incidence of glycemia less than 0.30 or 0.20 g/l was not significantly different in the two groups. These data show that prenatal betamethasone therapy has no harmful or diserable effect on the neonatal glycemia of preterm infants.

High-performance liquid chromatographic assay of betamethasone 17-valerate and its degradation products.

A high-performance liquid chromatographic assay of betamethasone 17-valerate is described. The procedure may be use for quantitative assay of the degradation products, betamethasone 21-valerate and betamethasone, and the application to the analysis of ointments is described. The method is also suitable for the determination of the kinetics of decomposition from one experimental run, and the determination of rate constants from a four-compartment sequential reaction is described. The procedure is also applicable to other corticosteroids, and hydrocortisone 17-butyrate, hydrocortisone 21-butyrate, and hydrocortisone may similarly be determined without modification to the method.
