Diflucortolone 21-valerate is a glucocorticoid.1 It has anti-inflammatory effects in a rat model of croton oil-induced ear edema when applied topically (ED50 = 9.7 µg/ml).2 Diflucortolone 21-valerate (0.1%) also induces skin inflammation and thins the epidermis in hairless dogs following chronic topical administration and increases allergic- and non-allergic-mediated skin inflammation in mouse models of atopic dermatitis when applied topically prior to and following sensitization.3,1 Formulations containing diflucortolone 21-valerate have been used in the treatment of inflammatory or allergic skin conditions.
