Cross-reactions to desoximetasone and mometasone furoate in a patient with multiple topical corticosteroid allergies

Jeffrey C H Donovan et al. Dermatitis. 2006 Sep.

Abstract

A 60-year-old man developed a bullous contact dermatitis after topical corticosteroid treatment of dermatitis on his lower leg. Subsequent patch testing showed cross-reactions to numerous group B and group D corticosteroids as well as cross-reactions to group C desoximetasone and group D1 mometasone furoate. His patch-test result was negative for the group A corticosteroids hydrocortisone and tixocortol pivalate. We discuss the uncommon finding of cross-reactions to desoximetasone and mometasone furoate.
