[Comparative study of 2 topical steroids preparations: desoximetasone and betamethasone dipropionate]
Abstract
Effectiveness of two creams, one containing desoxymethasone 0.25%, the other betamethasone dipropionate 0.05% was compared double blind, intraindividually. The preparations were used in symmetric areas of psoriasis. Final evaluation shows desoxymethasone cream to be significantly more active concerning reduction of erythema and overall improvement of lesions.
