Topical Steroid Concerns (Part 1) - The power and pitfalls
While topical steroids are indispensable in dermatology, understanding their powers and pitfalls is essential for healthcare professionals. Listen along to hear:
The impact of topical steroids on the skin barrier, from the thinning of the stratum corneum to the disruption of the all-important “acid mantle”.
Insights into the accelerated absorption from long-term use and its consequences in the deeper layers of the dermis.
Considerations for children, exploring absorption rates in relation to their body surface area to weight ratio.
How the language we use can increase the risk of poor clinical response and treatment failure.
The statistics around steroid allergies, and how this is often underrecognised.
How the immune suppressing effect of topical steroids can be a real problem in the presence of skin infections.
Tune in for valuable insights that balance the power and pitfalls of topical steroids, the dermatological cornerstone for managing so many skin conditions.
