Corticosteroids work by binding to the glucocorticoid receptor, which switches off pro-inflammatory signals while switching on anti-inflammatory ones. Betamethasone phosphate acts only briefly, since the body quickly converts it to betamethasone. Corticosteroids have a wide therapeutic window: doses may need to be many times higher than what the body normally produces on its own. Anyone taking a corticosteroid should be counselled about the risk of suppressing the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis and about becoming more prone to infections.
