Topical Corticosteroid
Actions and Clinical Pharmacology
The corticosteroids are a class of compounds comprising steroid
hormones
secreted by the adrenal cortex and their synthetic analogs. In
pharmacologic
doses, corticosteroids are used primarily for their anti-inflammatory
and/or
immunosuppressive effects. Topical corticosteroids such as clobetasol
propionate are effective in the treatment of corticosteroid-responsive
dermatoses
primarily because of their anti-inflammatory, anti-pruritic, and
vasoconstrictive
actions. However, while the physiologic, pharmacologic and clinical
effects of the
corticosteroids are well known, the exact mechanisms of their actions
in each
disease are uncertain.
Clobetasol propionate has been shown to have topical and systemic
pharmacologic and metabolic effects characteristic of the
corticosteroid class of
drugs.
