Pharmacology: This product is used externally as a dermatological preparation with anti-inflammatory, antipruritic and vasoconstrictive properties. The mechanism of phospholipase A2 inhibitory proteins, called lipocortins. These proteins control the biosynthesis of potent mediators of inflammation, such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes, by inhibiting the release of their common precursor, the arachidonic acid. The arachidonic acid is released from membrane phospholipids through phospholipase A2.
