Dapsone as initial treatment in superficial pemphigus. Report of nine cases

N Basset et al. Arch Dermatol. 1987 Jun.

Abstract

Nine cases of superficial pemphigus that were treated by dapsone as the initial mode of therapy are reported. Five patients, all having low or negative serum anti-intercellular cement substance antibody titers, responded dramatically, while the other four patients, showing high titers of anti-intercellular cement substance antibodies, did not respond to this treatment. Complications of therapy were observed in three cases.
