Abstract
Vehicle composition may influence topical corticosteroid performance. In two patients with disseminated granuloma annulare, switching from clobetasol ointment to the same‐strength solution in diethylene glycol monoethyl ether (DEGEE) was followed by complete clearance, suggesting formulation optimization may be considered when topical treatment provides an inadequate response.
