Title: [Effect of various kinds of tar and tar concentrations on anthralin erythema]. Author: Wemmer U, Schulze HJ, Mahrle G, Steigleder GK. Journal: Z Hautkr; 1986 Jun 15; 61(12):849-52. PubMed ID: 3751210. Abstract: The effect of tar on anthralin-induced erythema was epicutaneously tested in ten patients. 3%, 5%, or 10% crude coal tar or coal tar solution was added to vaseline containing anthralin. A 5% or 10% tar preparation significantly suppressed the anthralin erythema induced by 0.5 to 1.0% anthralin having been applied for 24 hrs. In these concentrations, coal tar solution was at least as effective as coal tar itself.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
