Once-daily treatment of psoriasis with topical glucocorticosteroid ointments.

A double-blind, vehicle-controlled comparison of two glucocorticosteroid ointments demonstrated that once-daily therapy for psoriasis was effective. After 3 weeks of once-daily therapy, psoriasis subjects treated with betamethasone dipropionate (BD) ointment or diflorasone diacetate (DD) ointment showed statistically significant (p less than 0.01) improvement compared to subjects using vehicle alone.

Beclomethasone dipropionate in the management of rhinitis--a review.

Beclomethasone dipropionate has been demonstrated to be effective in the treatment of seasonal and perennial rhinitis. Comparative studies with other medications are lacking. Adverse reactions are frequent but minor. No alterations of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, nasal mucosal histology or bacterial and fungal flora have been recognized.

Co-operative double-blind trial of an antibiotic/corticoid combination in impetiginized atopic dermatitis.

This double-blind study of an antibiotic coritcosteroid combination, the antibiotic alone and the corticosteroid alone, compared their clinical and microbiological effect in infected atopic dermatitis. Combination therapy reduced the mean scores for infection, inflammation and overall severity to a greater extent than the antibiotic or corticosteroid alone. The clinical and microbiological date are discussed in terms of relevance to clinical use.
