Abstract

Topical steroids are the first-line drugs for the treatment of the majority of dermatological diseases. Currently, however, often we have to deal with steroidophobia both among patients and doctors. The problem has been actively studied since steroidophobia can significantly reduce the quality of the treatment. At the same time, with the use of modern topical steroids, such as Advantan, steroidophobia has no grounds due to the high level of safety under normal use of drugs.
