Systemic Glucocorticoid Dose Equivalents. 



Note: approximate equivalent dose is based on anti-inflammatory potency. Fludrocortisone is not included because of its high degree of mineralocorticoid activity and minimal degree of anti-inflammatory activity, therefore not considered interchangeable with listed glucocorticoids.



Also, dexamethasone is commonly used to prevent CINV (chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting) and PONV (postoperative nausea and vomiting).
