Pharmacological action of
corticosteroids for external use, is a non-halogenated synthetic steroid. When used externally, Advantan suppresses inflammatory and allergic skin reactions, as well as reactions associated with increased proliferation, which leads to a decrease in objective symptoms (erythema, edema, lichenification) and subjective sensations (itching, irritation, pain).
When using methylprednisolone aceponate externally, the systemic effect is minimally expressed in both humans and animals. After repeated application of Advantan to large surfaces (40-60% of the skin surface), as well as when applied under an occlusive dressing, there is no adrenal gland dysfunction: the level of cortisol in the blood plasma and its circadian rhythm remain within normal limits, the level of cortisol in the daily urine does not decrease going on.
In clinical trials with the use of Advantan in the form of an ointment, cream, oily ointment or emulsion for up to 12 weeks in adults and up to 4 weeks in children (including young children), no development of atrophy of the skin, telangiectasia, striae and acne-like rashes.
Methylprednisolone aceponate (especially its main metabolite, 6β-methylprednisolone-17-propionate) binds to intracellular glucocorticoid receptors. The steroid-receptor complex binds to specific sections of DNA, thus causing a series of biological effects.
In particular, the binding of the steroid-receptor complex to DNA leads to the induction of macrocortin synthesis. Macrocortin inhibits the release of arachidonic acid and, thus, the formation of an inflammatory mediator such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes.
Inhibition of GCS synthesis of vasodilating prostaglandins and potentiation of the vasoconstrictor action of adrenaline leads to a vasoconstrictor effect.

Advantan Cream is a dosage form with a low fat content and a high water content, therefore it is recommended for the treatment of acute inflammatory processes and the weeping stage of eczema in case of very oily skin, as well as in localizing the process both on smooth skin and on the scalp.
If the skin dries excessively with prolonged use of the cream, it is necessary to switch to the dosage form of Advantan.
Side effects
Typically, the drug is well tolerated.
Very rarely (in less than 0.01% of cases) local reactions such as itching, burning, erythema, and the formation of a vesicular rash can be observed. If the drug is used for more than 4 weeks and / or on an area of 10% or more of the body surface, the following reactions may occur: skin atrophy, telangiectasia, striae, acneiform skin changes, systemic effects due to absorption of a corticosteroid.
In clinical trials, none of the above side effects were observed with Advantan before 12 weeks in adults and up to 4 weeks in children.
In rare cases (0.01-0.1%), folliculitis, hypertrichosis, perioral dermatitis, skin depigmentation, allergic reactions to one of the components of the drug can be observed.
Drug Interactions
Drug Interactions Advantan not described.
