Pharmacodynamics

The locally used prednisolone (a component of the ointment) has a vasoconstrictive effect, in addition it strengthens the strength of the vascular membranes. Also, this substance helps slow down the reproduction of fibroblasts and the movement of monocytes to the site of inflammation, which prevents the spread of this process. Prednisolone also promotes the stabilization of lysosome membranes. In addition, it affects the exudative and alternative stages of the inflammatory process, thereby preventing its spread.

Clioquinol is an antimycotic for external use. This element helps to destroy the enzyme system of germs with fungi. It also affects gram-positive microorganisms (enterococci with staphylococci), yeast fungi and dermatophytes.

Pharmacokinetics

After the local use of the drug, the absorption of prednisolone into the circulatory system occurs in a very small amount. Inside the blood, the element resides in a form synthesized with transcortin and albumin. Prednisolone is biotransformed inside the liver, with the help of oxidative processes. After this, oxidized forms of the substance undergo glucuronization and sulfatization. Part of the active component is excreted unchanged, and the second - in the form of metabolic products. The path of excretion is the intestine and kidneys.

With external use of clioquinol, it penetrates into the circulatory system in small amounts, where it is synthesized with the blood protein. Part of the metabolism of the substance occurs in the liver. Excretion - along with urine.

Dosing and administration

The medication is applied to the skin surface - a thin layer of medical ointment treats the affected area of the body. The procedure is carried out 1-3 times / day.

Reviews

Dermozolone is a SCS, which also additionally exerts a fungicidal and antibacterial effect (a topical steroid with a combined effect), which other corticosteroids can not. This is an extremely important property, because with eczema-like dermatoses, as well as eczema, intertrigo and neurodermatitis, infection of a secondary type is often observed. The drug Dermozolone has an extended drug activity, so that its effectiveness increases. Reviews say that any ointment, in which there are hormones, have a high efficiency and speed of exposure. This, in addition to the above properties, is one of the main advantages of the drug.

The only inconvenience, according to the patients, is that the ointment is produced in small quantities, so at the points of sale of medicines it is extremely difficult to find. At the same time, forum users also note that the use of drugs that are analogues of the drug is ineffective in comparison with the action of Dermozolone.
