Abstract
Sixty-seven patients with chronic and subacute cutaneous lesions of varying long duration that had previously been resistant to topical use of corticosteroid compounds were treated with a cream containing fluocinolone acetonide. Forty-eight patients had complete clearing of the treated area. Results were best in atopic dermatitis, chronic eczematous dermatitis and nummular dermatitis. Granuloma annulare, dyshidrotic dermatitis of the palms and psoriasis were not affected. No untoward effects were observed.
