Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23213332

Diflucortolone (used in the form of valerate prodrug) is a corticosteroid developed for the treatment of inflammatory skin diseases. It is supposed that Diflucortolone acts by inducing Annexin A1, a phospholipase A2 inhibitory protein, and thus controls the biosynthesis of prostagladins and leukotrienes. The drug is marketed as a cream under the tradename Nerisone.

Sample Use Guides

Apply a thin layer and gently rub in using only enough to cover the affected area once or twice a day for a maximum of 4 weeks.
Route of Administration: Topical
