C 48.401-Ba cream, containing 0.05% halomethasone was compared in a double-blind between-patients trial with a cream containing 0.1% betamethasone valerate in forty-eight patients suffering from atopic dermatitis and in thirty-nine patients suffering from seborrhoeic dermatitis. A similar comparison was made with ointments containing the same concentration of active ingredient in forty-six patients suffering from atopic dermatitis. Both ointments were also compared in a within-patient double-blind trial in thirty patients suffering from psoriasis. The analysis of the results showed that for the treatment of the above-mentioned dermatoses, both drugs, the cream as well as the ointment, are equally effective and well tolerated.
