Clobetasone butyrate compared with betamethasone valerate in the treatment of atopic and contact dermatitis

T Fredriksson et al. Curr Med Res Opin. 1979.

Abstract

In a double-blind, randomized study, 0.05% clobetasone butyrate cream was found to be as effective as 0.1% betamethasone valerate in the treatment of 48 patients with atopic or contact dermatitis, after 2 weeks as well as after 4 weeks of treatment. Side-effects with both drugs were rare and mild.
