Abstract

Lidex(Fluacinonide) 0.05% in FAPG base is a new fluorinated topical corticosteroid. 30 patients with different steroid responsive dermatoaes were treated with 0. 05% Lidex. The diagnosis included atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, neurodermatitis, seborheic dermatitis, nummular eczema, psoriasis vulgaris, chronic eczema and pustulosis pahmaris et plantaris. In the majority of cases Lidex cream produced excellent to good result(70%) after unoccluded application 3 times daily for 10 days. Two patients complained burning or itching sensation after the initial application of Lidex. 0.05% Lidex was compared with 0. 25% Desoxymethasone cream and 0. 25% Fluocortolone cream and was found slightly more effective in Lidex.
