Corticosteroid that binds to glucocorticoid receptors, modulating gene expression to reduce inflammation and immune response.
Hydrocortisone: 100-200 mg IV as initial dose, then 50-100 mg IV every 6 hours, or 0.18 mg/kg/h IV continuous infusion.
Intravenous: 100 mg hydralazine hydrochloride (equivalent to 80.5 mg hydralazine base) administered over 30 minutes, every 6 hours as needed, for a maximum of 48 hours. Oral: 10–50 mg every 6 hours, adjusted based on response.

2–4 hours (terminal); prolonged in renal impairment.
Terminal elimination half-life: 1.2-2.5 hours; clinically, dose adjustments needed in hepatic impairment due to prolonged clearance
Renal: 90% as unchanged drug; fecal: 10%.
Renal: >90% as unconjugated and conjugated metabolites; biliary/fecal: <10%
