Abstract

The article highlights the issues of efficiency and safety of superpotent topical glucocorticosteroid (GCS) - clobetasol propionate. In terms of strength and effectiveness in steroid-sensitive dermatoses, it is superior to the majority of topical corticosteroids. The drug has several dosage forms that are convenient for use in various localizations. It is a drug of choice in the treatment of moderate and severe psoriasis, and is effective in the treatment of a wide range of dermatoses that are difficult to treat with less active corticosteroids. Clobetasol propionate is safe with the rational use. The development of serious complications is possible with prolonged use at very high doses.
