The therapeutic efficacy of a w/oily lotion of desoximethasone 0.25% in the treatment of psoriasis was assessed by comparing the results with those obtained with a w/oly lotion of triamcinolone acetonide 0.10%. The comparison was performed by means of a double-blind intraindividual design. The assessment of results was done with a graphic method previously described which permits evaluation of velocity, intensity and duration of morbistatic effect. Twnety six patients were selected, all of them presenting bilateral long-standing, continuous and non-regressive psoriasis in order to avoid spontaneous remissions of the disease. The results showed a higher percentage of improvement with higher intensity, velocity and duration of therapeutic effect of desoxymethasone in comparison with triamcinolone. |
