Mechanism of Action
Fluticasone utilises a fluorocarbothioate ester linkage at the 17 carbon position. It has potent vasoconstrictive and anti-inflammatory activity, but weak hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) inhibitory effect when applied topically.
Mupirocin inhibits protein synthesis of the bacteria by binding to isoleucyl transfer ribonucleic acid (RNA)-synthetase. It has bacteriostatic properties at Min inhibitory concentrations and bactericidal properties at the higher concentrations.
