Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Agonist of glucocorticoid receptors, leading to anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects via inhibition of phospholipase A2, reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and suppression of immune cell activity.
Corticosteroid that binds to glucocorticoid receptors, altering gene expression to inhibit inflammatory mediators (e.g., prostaglandins, leukotrienes) and suppress immune cell activity.
Initial dose: 5-60 mg orally or intravenously once daily or divided every 12-24 hours; range 5-60 mg/day. For acute conditions, 40-60 mg once daily.
Apply a thin film to the affected area once or twice daily for up to 2 weeks, using the lowest effective dose. Not for use under occlusive dressings or on large areas.

Terminal elimination half-life is 2.1–3.5 hours in adults (mean 2.6 h). Clinical context: Short half-life supports twice-daily dosing for most conditions; prolonged in hepatic impairment (up to 8 h).
Terminal half-life: 2-3 hours (topical) due to rapid clearance; systemic half-life: 1-2 hours
Renal excretion of inactive metabolites (primarily prednisolone) accounts for >80% of elimination; less than 10% excreted unchanged. Biliary/fecal excretion is negligible (<5%).
Renal: 90% as metabolites; biliary/fecal: minimal (<5%)
