Double-blind comparison of halcinonide and betamethasone valerate. Use with occlusive dressings in psoriasis treatment.

In a double-blind, paired-comparison study of the effectiveness of corticosteroid creams used under occlusion for the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis, a new drug, halcinonide cream, was superior to betamethasone valerate cream, a steroid widely and effectively used for the treatment of psoriasis. This superiority was demonstrated in patients after both one and two weeks of treatment.

Evaluation of a new povidone-iodine-impregnated polyethylene oxide gel occlusive dressing.

Forty-five surgical wounds were closed by suture technic and then treated with either a polyethylene oxide gel (POG) dressing or a povidone-iodine-impregnated polyethylene oxide gel (PVPI-POG) dressing. In the control group with the POG dressing alone, three wound infections, representing 25% of those patients, were encountered. In the PVPI-POG dressing group no wound infections were encountered. Wound healing, in terms of reduced inflammation and faster epidermal approximation, appeared better in the PVPI-POG dressing group.
