Fluorometholone is a synthetic glucocorticoid (corticosteroid) used primarily in ophthalmic preparations for the treatment of inflammatory eye conditions such as allergic conjunctivitis, uveitis, and post-operative inflammation. It is approved for topical ocular use and is not intended for systemic use.
No published pharmacokinetic models for systemic exposure in humans are available. Most use is ophthalmic. Systemic absorption following ocular administration is minimal, but clinical PK values are not available.
