CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Like other topical corticosteroids, fluocinolone acetonide has
anti-inflammatory,
antipruritic, and vasoconstrictive properties. The mechanism of the
anti-inflammatory
activity of the topical steroids, in general, is unclear. However,
corticosteroids are
thought to act by the induction of phospholipase A
inhibitory proteins, collectively called
lipocortins. It is postulated that these proteins control the
biosynthesis of potent
mediators of inflammation
