Used topically in dermatological formulations for its potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. It is effective in treating inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and allergic dermatitis. Due to its high lipophilicity, it penetrates the skin efficiently, allowing for lower application doses and reduced risk of systemic absorption. Often found in creams, ointments, and lotions, it helps reduce redness, swelling, and itching. Its strong glucocorticoid activity makes it suitable for short-term management of moderate to severe skin inflammations under medical supervision.
