A member asked:

Are severity of side effects correlated to dosage of dexamethazone (in a ganglian impar block)? or are they likely to be fixed with any amount?

Most dose dependent: Most reactions to steroid are dose dependent; which is not to say you can not have a severe reaction with a small dose, but rather that the higher the dose the more the reaction in general.
