Adverse effects of topical corticosteroids
Acta Derm Venereol Suppl (Stockh).
1989.
Abstract
Topical corticosteroids may induce local and systemic adverse reactions. Some of the corticosteroids are at low risk to induce several manifestations, but gross overdosage or misuse of the most potent steroids are responsible for a number of adverse reactions. An overview of the effects of topical corticosteroids upon the different structures of human skin is presented here.
