- Abstract
This article presents a study which focuses on the treatment of sub-epidermal bullous dermatoses. One hundred and three cases of dermatitis herpetiformis were reviewed to compare the clinical response to and incidence of side-effects of dapsone and sulphamethoxypyridazine. Thirty patients received sulphamethoxypyridazine as a single agent therapy at some stage during their care. Eighty-five received dapsone as a single agent treatment. Twelve of these patients had received both agents, but at different times. Sulphamethoxypyridazine was also found to be helpful in the management of linear IgA disease, and the oral and cutaneous lesions of cicatricial pemphigoid.
