Hydrocortisone hemisuccinate

Hydrocortisone hemisuccinate (Hydrocortisone 21-hemisuccinate), a glucocorticoid, is an orally active steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (SAID) with anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities. Hydrocortisone hemisuccinate inhibits the bioactivity of IL-6 and IL-3 with IC50 values of 6.7 and 21.4 μM, respectively. Hydrocortisone hemisuccinate can be used in the study of ulcerative colitis (UC) and recurrent oral ulcers[1][2][3].
