What is Dexamethasone Indications and Guidelines about?
Dexamethasone is a glucocorticosteroid given intravenously to reduce cerebral edema from brain tumors, head injuries, or craniotomies. It works by entering cells and binding to receptors to reduce inflammation and suppress the immune system. Nurses must monitor patients for side effects like increased blood pressure, fluid and electrolyte imbalances, and secondary adrenal or pituitary issues when administering dexamethasone intravenously.
