Final answer:

No, potency of corticosteroids is not related to vasoconstriction.

Step-by-step explanation:

No, potency of corticosteroids is not related to vasoconstriction. Corticosteroids work by suppressing the immune system and reducing inflammation. They do this by binding to specific receptors in cells and blocking the production of certain substances that cause inflammation. While corticosteroids can have side effects such as vasoconstriction, the potency of the drug itself is not directly related to this effect.
