Comparison of the blanching activities of Dermovate, Betnovate and Eumovate creams and ointments

Description

The human skin blanching assay was used to determine the blanching activities of Dermovate, Betnovate and Eumovate creams and ointments. Dermovate was found to elicit a superior blanching response to Betnovate which in turn elicited a superior blanching response to Eumovate, except in the comparison of Betnovate and Eumovate ointments under occlusion. The importance of employing the correct methodology of the blanching assay is emphasized and the good correlation between the results of this study and clinical trials is indicated.
