Pharmacological properties

A fluorinated glucocorticosteroid drug, has a pronounced anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic and anti-exudative effect. By interacting with a specific protein receptor in target tissues, it regulates the expression of corticoid-dependent genes and thus affects protein synthesis. Reduces the formation, release and activity of inflammatory mediators (histamine, kinin, prostaglandins, lysosomal enzymes). Suppresses cell migration to the site of inflammation; reduces vasodilation and increased vascular permeability in the focus of inflammation. Stabilizes lysosomal enzymes of leukocyte membranes; suppresses the synthesis of antibodies and disrupts antigen recognition. Inhibits the release of interleukin 1, interleukin 2, interferon gamma from lymphocytes and macrophages. Induces the formation of lipocortin,inhibits the release of inflammatory mediators by eosinophils and stabilizes mast cell membranes.
All of these effects are involved in suppressing the inflammatory response in tissues in response to mechanical, chemical, or immune damage.
