Occlusion, inflammation and/or other disease processes in the skin may also increase percutaneous absorption.
▧ Protein binding :
Bound to plasma proteins in varying degrees.
▧ Metabolism :
Metabolized, primarily in the liver, and then excreted by the kidneys.
▧ Route of Elimination :
Corticosteroids are bound to plasma proteins in varying degrees, are metabolized primarily in the liver and excreted by the kidneys.

▧ Half Life :
The half-life of the material was 15 ± 2 hours (for urine) and 17 ± 2 hours (for feces) between the third and fifth trial day.
