This product is a multi-component item comprised of dexamethasone and (2-Hydroxypropyl)-?-cyclodextrin. The molecular weight of Dexamethasone is 392.5 g/mol. The molecular weight of the (2-Hydroxypropyl)-?-cyclodextrin is variable, but has an average molecular weight of 1,396 g/mol. There is an excess of cyclodextrin in the mixture to greatly enhance the solubility of the dexamethasone. The product is sold on the basis of the Dexamethasone content. The final product will have 55 - 75 mg of Dexamethasone per gram solid. For example, a 100mg package reporting a 75mg/gram Dexamethasone concentration would be a package of 1.81 grams. This value is reported in the Certiicate of Analysis. Please see the link below to review a sample of a specific Certificate:
