Q

explain how corticosteroids are an exception to the rule that for most drugs - the duraction of action is directly related to the time the drug is bound to the receptor

A

corticosteroids act on nuclear receptors and alter gene expression. Altered gene expression can result for weeks even after the drug has been cleared from the body
