The use of local glucocorticosteroids can primarily cause local side effects: deterioration of wound healing, burning sensation, itching, irritation, dryness, thinning of the skin, increased sensitivity of the skin.
With prolonged use of glucocorticosteroids - skin atrophy, local hirsutism, telangiectasia, purpura, hypopigmentation, hypertrichosis, folliculitis, acne vulgaris, fungal infection, allergic contact dermatitis, diaper rash.
When applied to large surfaces - systemic manifestations of side effects of glucocorticosteroid (growth retardation, Itenko-Cushing syndrome, benign increase in intracranial pressure after treatment, hyperglycemia, glucosuria, hypokalemia, increased blood pressure)
With prolonged use and on a large surface due to the systemic action of lidocaine, bradycardia may occur.
