  • Title: Comparison of 0.25% desoxymethasone ointment with 0.05% fluocinonide ointment in psoriasis.
    Author: Kuokkanen K.
    Journal: Curr Med Res Opin; ; 4(10):703-5. PubMed ID: 800971.
    Abstract:
    A double-blind comparative trial was carried out in 56 patients with psoriasis to assess the effectiveness of 0.25% desoxymethasone and 0.05% fluocinonide ointments. All patients showed marked improvement in their condition with twice daily application of the ointments during the 2-week period of the trial. Erythema, scaling and induration on the desoxymethasone-treated side showed a significantly better improvement than on the fluocinonide-treated side.
