Abstract
Conclusions The results suggest that cis-UCA - unlike hydrocortisone and tacrolimus - is efficient in both acute and subacute skin inflammation, attenuating skin oedema and erythema. Topical drug therapy with cis-UCA may provide a safe and effective drug treatment modality in inflammatory skin disorders.
