6?-hydroxy Dexamethasone is a metabolite of dexamethasone (Item No. 11015) that is more hydrophilic than the parent compound.{37032} Dexamethasone is metabolized by CYP3A4; therefore, quantification of the dexamethasone metabolites, 6?- and 6?-hydroxy dexamethasone, can be used to determine CYP3A4 enzyme activity in humans.{37031,37034} The formation of 6-hydroxy dexamethasone metabolites is species-specific, with hamsters producing the highest amount.{37033} In rats, dexamethasone hydroxylation is sex-specific, with male rats producing metabolites in similar ratios to humans and female rats producing fewer hydroxylated metabolites than male rats.
