Therapeutic Experience with Clocortolone Pivalate
Abstract
- Puraotix-C(0.1% Clocortolone Picalats Cream) is a new di-halogenated topical corticosteroid, and used in trial for treating several kinds of dermatoses. We treated 30 patients with Purantix-C who had one of the following dermatoses; atopic dermatitis, neurodermatitis, pustulosis palmaris et plantsris, seborrheic dermatitis, pityriasis rosea, nummular eczema, psoriasis vulgaris, pruritus ani and pompolyx. Among these 30 patients, Purantix-C showed excellent or good result (66.7%) either unoccluded or occluded application, 2~3 times daily for 7~10 days. Comparing with Lidex(0.05% fluorocinonide cream) and purantix-C, both of them had similar effect on eczema and psoriatic groups but Lidex was more effective than Purantix-C for treating the patients with the pustulosis palmaris et plantaris. Purantix-C without containing perfume and coloring substapce was less irritative.
