Consumer:

The use of topical corticosteroids may precipitate or aggravate conditions of hyperadrenocorticism. Systemic absorption of these agents can produce reversible hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis suppression. Systemic absorption, depends on the vehicle and concentration of the preparation, the size of the application area, the duration of administration, and whether or not occlusive dressings are used. Given equivalent doses, small children are generally at the greatest risk because of their larger skin surface to body mass ratios. Patients with an altered skin barrier or liver failure are also at increased risk. If possible, the use of highly potent agents (e.g., augmented betamethasone, clobetasol, diflorasone, and halobetasol) should be avoided in children and limited to small areas for 2 weeks in adults. The development of symptoms such as menstrual irregularities, acneiform lesions, cataracts and cushingoid features during topical corticosteroid therapy may indicate excessive use.
