Abstract

Lidex' cream (Fluocinonide 0.05% in FAPG base) is a new fluorina,ted topical corticosteroid, and its clinical effect was assessed by applying topically three to four times daily to the lesions of 50 patients with a variety of inflamrnatory skin condi- tions. The results revealed excellent effect in 16 patients, moderate effect in 23 patients, slight improvement in 9 patients, and no effect in 2 patients. No unfavorable side effects were noted except blanching. The findings suggest that fluocinonide is an excelIent addition to the topical corticosteroid agents that are available for clinical use at the present time.
