국소 코르티코스테로이드 시장 : 제형별, 용도별, 유통 채널별, 지역별

Topical Corticosteroids Market is estimated to be valued at USD 4.63 Bn in 2026 and is expected to reach USD 6.15 Bn by 2033, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.1% from 2026 to 2033.

Topical steroids are available in a variety of strengths and are classified into seven classes based on their potency. Class I (class one) contains the strongest steroids, while Class VII contains the weakest (class seven).

Topical steroids in Class I are 600 to 1,000 times more powerful than those in Class VII. The right steroid strength, or potency, is determined by a number of factors.

Babies, for example, absorb topical steroids much faster than adults, so a low-potency steroid may be required.

Topical steroids are absorbed quickly in parts of the body where skin touches flesh, such as the armpits or beneath the breasts, or in sensitive areas of skin, such as the eyelids, and may only require a low-potency formulation.
