Which medication is a high potency topical steroid?

  1. Fluocinonide 0.05% ointment

  2. Hydrocortisone Cream 1%

  3. Mometasone furoate 0.1% cream

  4. Clobetasol propionate 0.05%

The correct answer is: Fluocinonide 0.05% ointment

Fluocinonide is considered a high potency topical steroid because it has a higher concentration of the active ingredient compared to the other options. Hydrocortisone Cream 1%, Mometasone furoate 0.1% cream, and Clobetasol propionate 0.05% all have lower concentrations of their respective active ingredients and are therefore classified as medium or low potency topical steroids.
