Question: 1 / 400

For which condition can a member prescribe weak or moderately potent corticosteroids?

Atopic dermatitis

Corticosteroids are often prescribed to manage inflammation and immune responses in the body. Atopic dermatitis is a common inflammatory skin condition that can be effectively treated with weak or moderately potent corticosteroids. While corticosteroids may be used to manage certain symptoms of other conditions like hypertension or diabetes, those conditions do not typically require the use of corticosteroids for treatment in the same way that atopic dermatitis does. Influenza is a viral infection and corticosteroids are not typically used to manage viral infections. Therefore, atopic dermatitis is the only condition listed for which a member can prescribe weak or moderately potent corticosteroids.
