摘要
Therapy for kerions was evaluated by randomly assigning 30 patients to one of four treatment groups: group A griseofulvin, group B griseofulvin plus erythromycin, group C griseofulvin plus prednisone, and group D griseofulvin, erythromycin, and prednisone. Data indicate that antibiotic and steroid therapy, in addition to griseofulvin, may reduce scaling and pruritus, but does not reduce the time it takes for kerions to flatten.
