INVELTYS (loteprednol etabonate)
INVELTYS is indicated for the treatment of Inflammation; Pain.
How INVELTYS Works
Loteprednol etabonate works by binding to and activating glucocorticoid receptors to inhibit the inflammatory response. It suppresses multiple components of inflammation, including edema, fibrin deposition, capillary dilation, and leukocyte migration. It is also thought to inhibit prostaglandin production through several independent pathways. While effective at reducing inflammation and pain, the medication may delay or slow the physiological healing process.
