  • Title: [Clinical testing of a new local corticoid: desoximethasone].
    Author: Camarasa G.
    Journal: Z Hautkr; 1975; Suppl 2():21-4. PubMed ID: 132780.
    Abstract:
    In a double-blind comparative trial on 37 patients with symetric dermatoses, the clinical effect of desoximetasone (0.25%) has been compared to fluocinolone acetonide (0.2%). After 7 days of treatment an improvement or cure of the lesions could be seen in 34 patients treated with desoximetasone, and only on 22 patients treated with fluocinolone acetonide (0.2%). The better effect of desoximetasone was especially evident on erythema and pruritus. Differences between the drugs were statistically significant.
