[On the question of interval application of topical corticoids/Practicability and efficacy (author's transl)].
Therapeutic efficacy and practicability of an interval treatment were investigated in a multi-center study in a total of 1573 patients with psoriasis or eczema, respectively. Fluocortolone monohydrate as Syracort and Syracerin as steroid-free "partner drug" were applied at 4-13-day intervals. The findings and established results substantiate equivalent therapeutic success in comparison with consistent treatment. Starting from the premise that the risk of steroid-induced skin lesions can be reduced, if not avoided, by interval application of topical corticoids one may consider steroid application at intervals as superior to consistent therapy.
