Used primarily as a potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive agent in dermatology and rheumatology. Effective in treating severe allergic reactions, eczema, psoriasis, and autoimmune conditions such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis. Also applied in managing inflammatory skin disorders due to its strong penetration and prolonged activity. Occasionally used in ophthalmic formulations for eye inflammation when other corticosteroids are insufficient. Its high potency requires careful use to avoid systemic side effects, especially with long-term topical application.
