Clobetasone butyrate is a new corticosteroid, selected for study because of its combination of good activity in the vasoconstriction test and low systemic activity in animals. Formulated as an 0.05% ointment and cream (Molivate) it was clinically effective in patients with eczema, its activity being significantly greater than that of hydrocortisone 1% or fluocortolone 0.2% (Ultradil). Under conditions that predispose to maximal percutaneous absorption clobetasone butyrate ointment had minimal effect on hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal function. In an animal model of cutaneous atrophy it caused less thinning of the epidermis than steroids other than hydrocortisone. Clobetasone butyrate 0.05% ointment and cream gave every indication of offering clinically effective topical anti-inflammatory activity with a wide margin of safety.
丁酸氯倍他松是一种新型皮质类固醇,因其在血管收缩试验中具有良好活性且在动物体内全身活性较低而被选作研究对象。制成0.05%的软膏和乳膏(尤卓尔)后,对湿疹患者临床有效,其活性明显高于1%的氢化可的松或0.2%的氟轻松(优力肤)。在易于最大程度经皮吸收的条件下,丁酸氯倍他松软膏对下丘脑 - 垂体 - 肾上腺功能的影响极小。在皮肤萎缩的动物模型中,与除氢化可的松之外的其他类固醇相比,它引起的表皮变薄程度更小。0.05%的丁酸氯倍他松软膏和乳膏显示出具有临床有效的局部抗炎活性且安全性高。
