lüll Topical therapy for the management of childhood psoriasis: part I Cordoro KMSkin Therapy Lett 2008[Apr]; 13 (3): 1-3Psoriasis represents a potentially life-altering disease that can profoundly impact physical, emotional and social functioning, and overall quality of life. The majority of cases are mild and managed adequately with topical medications. A minor subset of children present with severe, rapidly evolving disease that requires systemic therapy. The choice of treatment in children, as in adults, is determined by disease acuity, morphology, distribution, severity and the presence of comorbidities such as psoriatic arthropathy. Practical considerations such as ease of use, patient acceptability, accessibility, risk to benefit ratio, cost and individual perceptions of disease and quality of life are factored into treatment decisions. Part I of this 2-part series will focus on topical agents, their varying degrees of effectiveness, potential side-effects and applications in clinical practice.|Administration, Cutaneous[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Dermatologic Agents/adverse effects/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Glucocorticoids/adverse effects/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Keratolytic Agents/adverse effects/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Psoriasis/*drug therapy[MESH] |
