What is the name of cortical steroid injected to control asthma attacks?

Beclomethasone dipropionate is a synthetic glucocorticoid used in the treatment of asthma and allergic rhinitis. It is available as an inhaler or nasal spray. Beclomethasone dipropionate is a relatively weak glucocorticoid, but it is potent enough to be effective in the treatment of asthma. It is also less likely to cause side effects than other glucocorticoids, such as prednisone.
