Topical and Systemic Steroids

Özet

Topical and systemic corticosteroids are the mainstays of treatment in various dermatological conditions. However, long-term use should be limited due to the well-known side effects of steroids. Furthermore, in the geriatric population, treatment with these medications requires even more careful consideration in terms of age-related physiological changes, comorbidities, and polypharmacy, all of which may have a significant impact on the efficacy and safety of corticosteroid therapy. This chapter aims to review treatment with steroids focusing on indications, considerations, potential side effects, and management strategies to optimize patient outcomes while minimizing their risks in the elderly population.
