Summaries of each treatment strategy are accompanied by detailed discussions of treatment choices, with clear evidence levels ranging from double-blind randomised controlled trials to anecdotal reports.
- Presents information in a concise, consistent, tabular format, with checklists of diagnostic and investigative pearls, full-color clinical images, and color-coded boxes for quick reference
- Includes new chapters on Cryoglobulinemia, Frontal fibrosing alopecia, Lipoedema, Lipoid proteinosis, mpox, and Stasis dermatitis/ID reaction
- Provides first- to third-line therapies for 261 of the most common skin disorders, including specific drug doses
- Discusses recently introduced drugs, including several new biologics for psoriasis, hidradenitis, and atopic dermatitis; other biologics in development for connective tissue disorders; new JAK inhibitors for a topic dermatitis, vitiligo, alopecia areata, and numerous other disorders; spesolimab for generalized pustular psoriasis; new lasers for various conditions, including pigmentary disorders; and more
- Includes off-label uses, new treatments like monoclonal antibodies, and new indications for existing treatments
- Offers the combined knowledge and expertise of the world’s leading authorities in dermatology, and is an ideal tool to assist with prior authorizations
