title: Evaluation of efficacy and tolerability of K-FA fluocinolone acetonide tape.
abstract: In order to assess the efficacy and tolerability of a fluocinolone acetonide tape (8 micrograms/cm2), 30 volunteer out-patients, 11 females and 19 males, mean age 43.4 years, affected by different kinds of dermatoses were treated. The tape was applied once or twice daily for an average period of 9.3 days. At the beginning and the end of the treatment, detailed dermatological and blood chemistry examinations were performed in all the patients. The clinical results were excellent for all the dermatoses treated. Itching at the site of application was reported by two patients and slight atrophy was observed in one patient. The patients' compliance was excellent. The blood chemistry tests showed no significant variation.
