  • Title: Fluocinonide compared with betamethasone in the treatment of eczema and psoriasis.
    Author: Ronn HH.
    Journal: Practitioner; 1976 Jun; 216(1296):704-6. PubMed ID: 781661.
    Abstract:
    Good results have been obtained with a single daily application of fluocinonide ('Metosyn') to one area as compared with a twic-daily application of betamethasone 17-valerate ('Betnovate') to a similar area on the opposite side in the treatment of eczema and psoriasis. These conditions are difficult to control even in favourable circumstances and have a tendency to relapse despite any form of treatment. Both creams were entirely acceptable to the patients involved and during the course of the trial no patient expressed dissatisfaction with either the mode of treatment or the preparation involved.
