Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Corticosteroid that binds to glucocorticoid receptors, modulating gene transcription to inhibit phospholipase A2, reduce prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis, and suppress inflammatory cell migration and cytokine production.
Flutamide is a nonsteroidal antiandrogen that competitively inhibits the binding of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) to androgen receptors in target tissues, thereby blocking the androgenic effects.
Topical: Apply a thin film to affected skin areas twice daily. Maximum 60 g per week. Use for no longer than 2 consecutive weeks.

Terminal elimination half-life is approximately 2–4 hours, but following topical application, systemic half-life may be prolonged due to continuous absorption from the skin.
Clinical Note
moderateAmcinonide + Gatifloxacin
"The risk or severity of adverse effects can be increased when Amcinonide is combined with Gatifloxacin."

Primarily renal; <5% fecal. About 40% of a dose is excreted in urine as unchanged drug and glucuronide conjugates.
Renal: ~70% (50% unchanged, 20% as metabolites); Biliary/fecal: ~30%
