Therapeutic response to a dermatologic patch and betamethasone valerate 0.1 percent cream in the management of chronic plaques in psoriasis.

The efficacy of a hydrocolloid dermatologic patch (Actiderm) in conjunction with topical beta-methasone valerate 0.1 percent cream was studied in outpatients with chronic plaque-type psoriasis treated for three weeks, and observed for an additional two weeks after therapy. A significant degree (p less than 0.05) of lesion resolution occurred at the site treated with the dermatologic patch plus steroid cream, whereas sites treated with either agent alone showed mild but insignificant change. It was concluded that the patch was a highly effective adjunct in the treatment of chronic plaques of psoriasis.

Topical tretinoin, hydroquinone, and betamethasone valerate in the therapy of melasma.

Twenty adult female patients with melasma were followed over a ten week clinical trial in which a combination of depigmenting agents was used daily. Past clinical experience and objective assessment point to enhanced efficacy of this simple depigmenting combination. Certainly, most of depigmenting agents at our command to date have been relatively ineffective. Even this new combination is not the final answer. The purpose of this study is to provide the clinician with a simple yet effective and readily accessible combination of commercially-formulated and available depigmentary agents. A stable combination in a single vehicle with greater efficacy remains to be perfected.
