AN EVALUATION OF SELECTED TOPICAL THERAPE UTIC AGENTS WITH CONSIDERATION OF THEIR APPLICATIONS

Between 1988 and 1994 more than 40 monographs dealing with dermatologi cally relevant drugs have been published in an official German governm ent publication,the ''Bundesanzeiger''. These monographs represent rev iews compiled by independent dermatological and pharmaceutical authori ties working together in an expert commission and most of their inform ation has proved valid. Thus, knowledge of these official reviews coul d help physicians to decide about the use of many drugs. However,they are not well-known to doctors. With this brief summary we hope to make more physicians familiar with these important monographs published in the ''Bundesanzeiger''.
