Phenylbutazone is a member of glucocorticoid family and like other drugs in this group it has a pharmacologic effect in all cells on the body. From different effects immunosuppressive (partially or completely suppressing the immune response of an individual) and anti inflammatory actions have been more evaluated and is indicated in these medical conditions. Glucocorticoid drugs inhibit the effects of lytic enzymes (relating to or causing lysis in tissues and cells as a destruction effect), which are released in inflammations and severe stress conditions.

Phenylbutazone is another active ingredient in this product belongs to NSAIDs group of drugs and its mechanism of action is different from dexamethasone.
