E-drug: Inappropriate combinations with corticosteroids (cont'd)
---------------------------------------------
Dear E-druggers,
Recently there was a discussion on E-drug about combination drugs
containing corticosteroids. I just came across a drug from Hong Kong,
which is a combination of Dexamethasone + Indomethacin + Vit.. Despite
disagreement in some countries, some others approved these drugs and
allowed them in their markets. So, I am interested to know how many
countries approve combinations with Dexamethasone. I am also
interested in knowing what made them approve.
My question is directed at national drug regulatory authorities: "Have
you approved any formulation combining Dexamethasone +
Indomethacin??". And if the answer is yes, "How could you avoid
problems that may be caused by this combination?".
I would appreciate your responses and co-operation.
