  • This Fact Sheet Provides Information to Patients with Eczema and Their Carers. About Topical Corticosteroids How to Apply Topic
    This fact sheet provides information to patients with eczema and their carers. About topical corticosteroids You or your child’s doctor has prescribed a topical corticosteroid for the treatment of eczema. For treating eczema, corticosteroids are usually prepared in a cream or ointment and are applied topically (directly onto the skin). Topical corticosteroids work by reducing inflammation and helping to control an over-reactive response of the immune system at the site of eczema. They also tighten blood vessels, making less blood flow to the surface of the skin. Together, these effects help to manage the symptoms of eczema. There is a range of steroids that can be used to treat eczema, each with different strengths (potencies). On the next page, the potencies of some common steroids are shown, as well as the concentration that they are usually used in cream or ointment preparations. Using a moisturiser along with a steroid cream does not reduce the effect of the steroid. There are many misconceptions about the side effects of topical corticosteroids. However these treatments are very safe and patients are encouraged to follow the treatment regimen as advised by their doctor. How to apply topical corticosteroids How often should I apply? How much should I apply? Apply 1–2 times each day to the affected area Enough cream should be used so that the of skin according to your doctor’s instructions. entire affected area is covered. The cream can then be rubbed or massaged into the Once the steroid cream has been applied, inflamed skin. moisturisers can be used straight away if needed.

Betamethasone valerate (BMV) is a mid-potency corticosteroid (class 3–5, depending on the dosage form), used topically to relieve inflammatory skin conditions. It is used as a treatment for psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and other corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses. The vehicle used to deliver topical drugs can influence the performance of these drugs.

  • Penetration of Synthetic Corticosteroids Into Human Aqueous Humour

FERNl Glasgow Summary The penetration of prednisolone acetate (1%) and fluorometholone alcohol (0.1%) into human aqueous humour following topical application was determined using the very sensitive and specific technique of Gas Chromatography with Mass Spec­ trometry (GCMS). Prednisolone acetate afforded peak mean concentrations of 669.9 ng/ml within two hours and levels of 28.6 ng/ml in aqueous humour were detected almost 24 hours post application. The peak aqueous humour level of flu­ orometholone was S.lng/ml. The results are compared and contrasted with the absorption of dexamethasone alcohol (0.1%), betamethasone sodium phosphate (0.1 %) and prednisolone sodium phosphate (0.5%) into human aqueous humour.

  • Steroid Use in Prednisone Allergy Abby Shuck, Pharmd Candidate
    Steroid Use in Prednisone Allergy Abby Shuck, PharmD candidate 2015 University of Findlay If a patient has an allergy to prednisone and methylprednisolone, what (if any) other corticosteroid can the patient use to avoid an allergic reaction? Corticosteroids very rarely cause allergic reactions in patients that receive them. Since corticosteroids are typically used to treat severe allergic reactions and anaphylaxis, it seems unlikely that these drugs could actually induce an allergic reaction of their own. However, between 0.5-5% of people have reported any sort of reaction to a corticosteroid that they have received.1 Corticosteroids can cause anything from minor skin irritations to full blown anaphylactic shock. Worsening of allergic symptoms during corticosteroid treatment may not always mean that the patient has failed treatment, although it may appear to be so.2,3 There are essentially four classes of corticosteroids: Class A, hydrocortisone-type, Class B, triamcinolone acetonide type, Class C, betamethasone type, and Class D, hydrocortisone-17-butyrate and clobetasone-17-butyrate type. Major* corticosteroids in Class A include cortisone, hydrocortisone, methylprednisolone, prednisolone, and prednisone. Major* corticosteroids in Class B include budesonide, fluocinolone, and triamcinolone. Major* corticosteroids in Class C include beclomethasone and dexamethasone. Finally, major* corticosteroids in Class D include betamethasone, fluticasone, and mometasone.4,5 Class D was later subdivided into Class D1 and D2 depending on the presence or 5,6 absence of a C16 methyl substitution and/or halogenation on C9 of the steroid B-ring. It is often hard to determine what exactly a patient is allergic to if they experience a reaction to a corticosteroid.

  • St John's Institute of Dermatology
    St John’s Institute of Dermatology Topical steroids This leaflet explains more about topical steroids and how they are used to treat a variety of skin conditions. If you have any questions or concerns, please speak to a doctor or nurse caring for you. What are topical corticosteroids and how do they work? Topical corticosteroids are steroids that are applied onto the skin and are used to treat a variety of skin conditions. The type of steroid found in these medicines is similar to those produced naturally in the body and they work by reducing inflammation within the skin, making it less red and itchy. What are the different strengths of topical corticosteroids? Topical steroids come in a number of different strengths. It is therefore very important that you follow the advice of your doctor or specialist nurse and apply the correct strength of steroid to a given area of the body. The strengths of the most commonly prescribed topical steroids in the UK are listed in the table below.
