Betamethasone binds primarily to plasma albumin. It easily penetrates the histohematological barriers, including the placental. Betamethasone metabolism is carried out mainly in the liver with the formation of mainly inactive metabolites.
The plasma half-life for betamethasone disodium phosphate is from 3 to 5 hours, the biological half-life is from 36 to 54 hours. The metabolism of betamethasone dipropionate lasts up to 10 days.
Betamethasone is excreted by the kidneys, in part with breast milk. Excretion of betamethasone disodium phosphate is 24 hours.
