Prednisolone is a synthetic analog of the natural glucocorticoid corticosterone that has anti-inflammatory and immunsuppressive actions.{19136,25867} It avidly binds both glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptors (Kis = 2.4 and 37 nM).{25866} Prednisolone Phosphate, prepared as the sodium salt, is a water-soluble ester of the poorly soluble parent molecule, prednisolone.{25865} It is rapidly hydrolyzed in vivo to the parent molecule when administered intravenously.{25865} In addition, when given orally, prednisolone phosphate is more readily absorbed than prednisolone, resulting in a higher effective blood concentration of prednisolone.{25868}
