Side effects from using ear drops used to remove ear wax are uncommon, but may result in discomfort, irritation, or pain. [5] Antibiotic ear drops may cause ear discomfort, pain, or itching. [ 1 ] When cold ear drops are used, it may cause brief but severe dizziness and/or vertigo.
Iontophoresis is a process of transdermal drug delivery by use of a voltage gradient on the skin. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Molecules are transported across the stratum corneum by electrophoresis and electroosmosis and the electric field can also increase the permeability of the skin.
Dexamethasone is a fluorinated glucocorticoid medication [10] used to treat rheumatic problems, a number of skin diseases, severe allergies, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), croup, brain swelling, eye pain following eye surgery, superior vena cava syndrome (a complication of some forms of cancer), [11] and along with antibiotics in tuberculosis.

Dexamethasone isonicotinate is an anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic glucocorticoid that can be administered orally, by inhalation, locally, and parenterally. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ additional citation(s) needed ] It may cause salt and water retention .
Dexamethasone is an exogenous steroid that provides negative feedback to the pituitary gland to suppress the secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). Specifically, dexamethasone binds to glucocorticoid receptors in the anterior pituitary gland, which lie outside the blood–brain barrier , resulting in regulatory modulation.
Dexamethasone acetate is a synthetic glucocorticoid corticosteroid and a corticosteroid ester. [1] In China, 999 Group sells it under the brand name Pi Yan Ping ...
Sonophoresis allows for the enhancement of the permeability of the skin along with other modalities, such as iontophoresis, to deliver drugs with lesser side effects. Currently, sonophoresis is used widely in transdermal drug delivery , but has potential applications in other sectors of drug delivery, such as the delivery of drugs to the eye ...
Typical mineralocorticoid side-effects are hypertension (abnormally high blood pressure), steroid induced diabetes mellitus, psychosis, poor sleep, hypokalemia (low potassium levels in the blood), hypernatremia (high sodium levels in the blood) without causing peripheral edema, metabolic alkalosis and connective tissue weakness.
