Summary

This title provides guidance on dermatologic treatments for both standard and difficult clinical problems. It is organized alphabetically by disease for immediate reference. Whilst common diseases such as psoriasis and eczema are listed, the focus is on therapeutically awkward diseases. Again, whilst primary and secondary treatments are covered, the main focus is on third and fourth-line treatment. The recommendations are evidence-based where applicable, and ranked according to efficacy.
