Integumentary
Topical therapies for the skin — calming inflammation, clearing fungal infection, and preventing wound and burn sepsis. The recurring themes: potency and site govern steroid safety, topical antifungals are safe while their oral cousins are not, and every wound agent starts with the same rule — assess and clean the wound first.
Topical Corticosteroids
High-yieldCalm inflamed, itchy skin by suppressing local immune activity. Safety is governed by two dials: potency class and where you apply it.
Topical Antifungals
-azole High-yieldAttack the fungal cell membrane by targeting ergosterol. Topical agents are very safe; it’s their oral cousins that carry the serious hepatotoxicity and interactions.
Wound & Burn Agents
Topical antimicrobials and wound products that lower infection risk and support healing. Silver sulfadiazine and mafenide are the burn workhorses — each with a specific safety catch.
