UsesBeclomethasone dipropionate is a topically active corticosteroid used as an adjuvant in the control of chronic asthma when given by inhalation as an aerosol. It is also used as a topical anti-inflammatory.
General DescriptionBeclomethasone dipropionate (Beclovent, Beconase, Vanceril, Vancenase) (BDP) is rapidly converted in the lungs to beclomethasone 17-monopropionate (17-BMP), the metabolite that provides the bulk of the anti-inflammatory activity. The monopropionate also has a higher affinity for the GR than either the dipropionate or beclomethasone. The portion of BDP that is swallowed is rapidly hydrolyzed to 17-BMP, 21-BMP (which arises by a transesterification reaction from 17-BMP), and beclomethasone itself. Beclomethasone has much less GC activity than the monopropionate. It is used in nasal sprays and aerosol formulations totreat allergic rhinitis and asthma.
PreparationMicronized beclomethasone dipropionate is prepared via antisolvent precipitation in the presence of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)[6].

DefinitionChEBI: Beclomethasone dipropionate is a steroid ester comprising beclomethasone having propionyl groups at the 17- and 21-positions. It has a role as an anti-inflammatory drug, an anti-asthmatic drug, a prodrug and an anti-arrhythmia drug. It is a steroid ester, an enone, a 20-oxo steroid, an 11beta-hydroxy steroid, a propanoate ester, a corticosteroid, a glucocorticoid, a 3-oxo-Delta(1),Delta(4)-steroid and a chlorinated steroid. It is functionally related to a beclomethasone.
