Effectiveness

How Verdeso Affects PatientsDesonide is a steroid-based medication used to treat skin inflammation and itching. It is one of a group of synthetic steroids that are used to reduce inflammation and itching on the skin.
How Verdeso works in the bodyDesonide is a topical corticosteroid used to reduce inflammation, itching, and swelling. It works by binding to receptors inside cells, which then cause certain genes to be activated or deactivated. This in turn inhibits the release of arachidonic acid, a key molecule in the production of inflammation-causing proteins like prostaglandins and leukotrienes.
