Biochem/physiol Actions

Loteprednol Etabonate is a "soft" steroid, typically used in topical applications for inflammatory conditions of the eye. Loteprednol Etabonate is an agonist of both glucocorticoid and mineralcorticoid receptors.
Loteprednol Etabonate is an anti-inflammatory corticosteroid (ophthalmology).
Loteprednol etabonate (LE) is a key site-active corticosteroid. It is produced by structural modifications of prednisolone-related compounds to form an inactive metabolite. Double-masked study states that loteprednol etabonate is used to treat giant papillary conjunctivitis, seasonal allergic conjunctivitis, postoperative inflammation and uveitis. LE has good ocular permeation properties.
