EVALUATION OF CORTICOSTEROID USAGE IN THE MANAGEMENT OF VARIOUS DERMATOLOGICAL CONDITIONS

Abstract

Corticosteroids are pivotal in the treatment of various dermatological conditions, owing to their potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. This study explores the patterns of corticosteroid use, their therapeutic efficacy, and associated adverse effects in managing skin disorders. Topical corticosteroids (TCs) are widely employed for inflammatory conditions like atopic 
dermatitis, psoriasis, and eczema, offering rapid symptom relief and inflammation control.
