- Pharmacodynamics
Corticosteroids bind to the glucocorticoid receptor, inhibiting pro-inflammatory signals, and promoting anti-inflammatory signals.5 Clobetasol propionate is generally applied twice daily so the duration of action is long.10,11,12,13,14,15 Corticosteroids have a wide therapeutic window as patients may require doses that are multiples of what the body naturally produces.5 Patients taking corticosteroids should be counselled regarding the risk of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis suppression and increased susceptibility to infections.5
- Mechanism of action
The short term effects of corticosteroids are decreased vasodilation and permeability of capillaries, as well as decreased leukocyte migration to sites of inflammation.5 Corticosteroids binding to the glucocorticoid receptor mediates changes in gene expression that lead to multiple downstream effects over hours to days.5
Glucocorticoids inhibit neutrophil apoptosis and demargination; they inhibit phospholipase A2, which decreases the formation of arachidonic acid derivatives; they inhibit NF-Kappa B and other inflammatory transcription factors; they promote anti-inflammatory genes like interleukin-10.5
Lower doses of corticosteroids provide an anti-inflammatory effect, while higher doses are immunosuppressive.5 High doses of glucocorticoids for an extended period bind to the mineralocorticoid receptor, raising sodium levels and decreasing potassium levels.5
Target Actions Organism AGlucocorticoid receptor agonistHumans UAnnexin A1 inducerHumans UMineralocorticoid receptor agonistHumans - Absorption
Twice daily application of clobetasol foam leads to a Cmax of 59±36pg/mL with a Tmax of 5 hours.10 Clobetasol cream showed an increase in clobetasol concentrations from 50.7±96.0pg/mL to 56.3±104.7pg/mL.12
- Volume of distribution
Data regarding the volume of distribution of clobetasole propionate are not readily available.10,11,12,13,14,15
- Protein binding
Data regarding the protein binding of clobetasol propionate are not readily available.10,11,12,13,14,15 Corticosteroids are generally bound to corticosteroid binding globulin6 and serum albumin7 in plasma.
- Metabolism
The metabolism of clobetasol propionate is not well studied but it does induce metabolic enzymes, even when delivered topically.2 The metabolism of clobetasol propionate is predicted to follow similar metabolic pathways to other corticosteroids including the addition of oxygen, hydrogen, glucuronides, and sulfates to form water soluble metabolites.15
- Route of elimination
Corticosteroids are eliminated predominantly in the urine.7
- Half-life
Data regarding the half life of clobetasol propionate are not readily available.3

- Toxicity
Data regarding acute overdoses of glucocorticoids are rare.10,11,12 Overdoses of clobetasol propionate can lead to reversible HPA axis suppression and glucocorticoid insufficiency.15 Chronic high doses of glucocorticoids can lead to the development of cataract, glaucoma, hypertension, water retention, hyperlipidemia, peptic ulcer, pancreatitis, myopathy, osteoporosis, mood changes, psychosis, dermal atrophy, allergy, acne, hypertrichosis, immune suppression, decreased resistance to infection, moon face, hyperglycemia, hypocalcemia, hypophosphatemia, metabolic acidosis, growth suppression, and secondary adrenal insufficiency.8 Overdose may be treated by adjusting the dose or stopping the corticosteroid as well as initiating symptomatic and supportive treatment.8
