ABSTRACT
Dexamethasone is frequently used in the treatment of allergic reactions and airway inflammation because of its potent anti-inflammatory effects and long duration of action. As prehospital use becomes more common, it is important for providers to be aware of unique and potentially distressing associated adverse effects. We report eight cases of intravenous dexamethasone administration associated with perineal or diffuse burning sensation in female patients.
