Summary
Clinical observation frequently shows a paradoxical effect of topical corticosteroids in
charge of a sudden melting of edema in the first days of treatment, which could be due to
mobilization of extracellular. No study has shown the value of this measure in patients
treated with topical steroids. This uncertainty, coupled with the observation of the
paradoxical effects of topical steroids on edema are some patients that despite the systemic
absorption of clobetasol propionate, a salt-free diet is not currently recommended practice.
