Fluorometholone Acetate (formerly NSC47438; NSC-47438; U 17,323; AI 3-52814; Flarex) is a synthetic corticosteroid that has been approved as a medication commonly used as eye drops in the treatment of steroid responsive inflammatory conditions of the eye.
ln Vitro |
Lineweaver-Burk plots for fluorometholone acetate yield a Ki value of 1.044 μM (noncompetitive) for hCA-I and 9.98 μM (noncompetitive) for hCA-II[2].

ln Vivo |
In New Zealand albino rabbits weighing 1.5–2.0 kg, an artificially induced inflammatory keratitis resulted in an average 47% reduction in the polymorphonuclear leukocytes invading the cornea when 0.1% fluorometholone acetate ophthalmic suspension was applied topically every hour. When given at three-hour intervals, 0.1% fluorometholone acetate, produced as a high-viscosity carbomer gel, reduced invading leukocytes in the cornea by an average of 48%; this impact was not statistically different from when the suspension was administered hourly[1].

Additional Infomation |
Fluorometholone acetate is a steroid ester resulting from the formal condensation of the 17-hydroxy function of fluorometholone with acetic acid. Used in the treatment of steroid responsive inflammatory conditions of the palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva, cornea, and anterior segment of the eye. It has a role as an anti-inflammatory drug. It is a steroid ester, a glucocorticoid, a 3-oxo-Delta(1),Delta(4)-steroid, a 20-oxo steroid, an 11beta-hydroxy steroid, an acetate ester and a fluorinated steroid. It is functionally related to a Delta(1)-progesterone and a fluorometholone.
Fluorometholone Acetate is the acetate salt form of fluorometholone, a synthetic glucocorticoid with anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties. Fluorometholone acetate exerts its effect by interacting with cytoplasmic glucocorticoid receptors and subsequently activates glucocorticoid receptor mediated gene expression. The synthesis of certain anti-inflammatory proteins is induced while the synthesis of certain inflammatory mediators is inhibited. As a result, there is an overall reduction in chronic inflammation and autoimmune reactions. See also: Fluorometholone (has active moiety); Fluorometholone acetate; tobramycin (component of). |

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.97 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.97 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation::Take μL DMSO stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
(1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
(2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
