DESCRIPTION:
Desonide Cream 0.05% and Lotion 0.05% contain desonide
(Pregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione,11,21-
dihydroxy-16,17 [(1-methylethylidene)bis(oxy)]-,(11β,16α)- a
synthetic nonfluorinated corticosteroid
for topical dermatologic use. The corticosteroids constitute a class
of primarily synthetic steroids used
topically as anti-inflammatory and anti-pruritic agents.
Chemically, desonide is C
H O . It has the following structural formula:
Desonide has the molecular weight of 416.51. It is a white to off
white odorless powder which is
soluble in methanol and practically insoluble in water.
Each gram of Desonide Cream contains 0.5 mg of desonide in a base of
citric acid, emulsifying wax,
isopropyl palmitate, polysorbate 60, potassium sorbate, propyl
gallate, propylene glycol, purified
water, sodium hydroxide, sorbic acid, stearic acid, and synthetic
beeswax.
Each gram of Desonide Lotion contains 0.5 mg of desonide in a base of
cetyl alcohol, edetate sodium,
glyceryl stearate SE, light mineral oil, methylparaben, propylene
glycol, propylparaben, purified water,
sodium lauryl sulfate, sorbitan monostearate, and stearyl alcohol. May
contain citric acid and/or sodium
hydroxide for pH adjustment.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY:
Like other topical corticosteroids, desonide 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 such as prostaglandins and
leukotrienes by inhibiting the release of
their common precursor arachidonic acid. Arachidonic acid is released
from membrane phospholipids
by phospholipase A .
