Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Corticosteroid with anti-inflammatory action; inhibits release of inflammatory mediators (e.g., histamine, leukotrienes), reduces eosinophil migration, and stabilizes mast cells. Suppresses cytokine production and adhesion molecule expression.
Corticosteroid that binds to glucocorticoid receptors, leading to modulation of gene expression and suppression of inflammatory mediators (e.g., prostaglandins, leukotrienes) and immune cell activity.
50 mcg per nostril twice daily (total daily dose 200 mcg), via nasal spray.
20-60 mg intramuscularly or intra-articularly once daily as a single dose or divided every 6-12 hours; dose varies by indication and severity.

Terminal elimination half-life is 1.8 hours (range 1.3–2.5 h) after intravenous administration; clinically, endogenous suppression persists up to 24 h post-inhalation.
Terminal half-life: 2-4 hours (plasma); clinical effects persist longer (18-36 hours) due to prolonged receptor occupancy and transcriptional effects.
Renal (50%) as metabolites, fecal (40%) as metabolites via bile, <5% unchanged in urine.
Renal: primarily as metabolites, <20% unchanged; small fecal/biliary contribution.
