Pharmacological action

Prednisolone ointment has a pronounced local anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, antiexudative effect. The anti-inflammatory effect of prednisone in the skin and other tissues is achieved mainly with the participation of cytosolic glucocorticosteroid receptors. The hormone-receptor complex, penetrating the nucleus of the target cell of the skin (keratinocytes, fibroblasts, lymphocytes), enhances the expression of genes encoding the synthesis of lipocortins, which inhibit phospholipase A2 and reduce the synthesis of metabolic products of arachidonic acid - cyclic endoperoxides, prostaglandins and thromboxane. The antiproliferative effect of prednisone is associated with inhibition of the synthesis of nucleic acids (primarily DNA) in the cells of the basal layer of the epidermis and fibroblasts of the dermis. The antiallergic effect of the drug is due to a decrease in the number of basophils, direct inhibition of the synthesis and secretion of biologically active substances.

Pharmacokinetics

When applied topically, prednisone is absorbed and the active substance enters the bloodstream. In plasma, 90% of prednisolone is bound (with transcortin and albumin). Biotransformed by oxidation, mainly in the liver, oxidized forms are glucuronidized or sulfated. It is excreted in urine and feces in the form of metabolites, partially in unchanged form. Penetrates through the placental barrier and is found in small amounts in breast milk.
