[Clinical comparative study of between difluocortolone and flumethasone].

Abstract

We report the results of a controlled double blind assay of treatment in 51 dermatologic cases, with a new steroid cream (diflucortolone) and an already known one (flumetasone). The diflucortolone valerate was significantly better than the flumetasone pivalate in the treatment of 16 cases of psoriasis, 33 eczemas and two cases of lichên planus.
