علاج الخط الأول لالتهاب الجلد التماسي التهيجي

References

• Localized acute allergic contact dermatitis lesions are successfully treated with mid- or high-potency topical steroids, such as triamcinolone 0.1% (Kenalog, Aristocort) or clobetasol 0.05% (Temovate).
• On areas with thinner skin (e.g., flexural surfaces, eyelids, face, anogenital region), lower-potency steroids, such as desonide ointment (Desowen), can be helpful and minimize the risk of skin atrophy.
• There are insufficient data to support the use of topical steroids for irritant contact dermatitis.
• However, because it is difficult to clinically distinguish between allergic and irritant contact dermatitis, these agents are often used successfully for the irritant form.
