Kronik dermatozlarda topikal steroidlerin kullanımı yaygındır. Topikal uygulama sonrası glukokortikoidlerin bir kısmı ciltten emilerek, sistemik dolaşıma geçebilir. Bunun sonucunda kullanılan topikal glukokortikoidin etkinliğine ve uygulanma süresine bağlı olarak iatrojenik Cushing sendromu gelişebilir ve hipotalamus-hipofiz-adrenal aksın baskılanmasına neden olabilirler. Burada güçlü topikal steroid kullanımına bağlı iyatrojenik Cushing sendromu gelişen 48 günlük bir kız bebek sunuldu. Bu olgu nedeni ile , topikal steroidlerin adrenal aks üzerine ve diğer olası yan etkilerini tartıştık. Topikal steroidlerin doğru kullanımı ve dikkatli kullanılmadığı takdirle olası yan etkileri konusunda eczacılar ve aileler, hatta doktorlar bilgilendirilmelidir. Gerekirse yaygın iletişim araçları bunun için kullanılmalıdır. Çünkü Türkiye’den benzer olgu sunumları oldukça fazladır.

This may cause hypothalamushypophysis-adrenal axis suppression and Cushing’s syndrome. We present here, a 48 days-old female baby who has iatrogenic Cushing’s syndrome secondary to the use of potent topical steroid. Upon this case, we discussed the effects of topical steroids on adrenal axis and other advers effects. Detailed information should be given to pharmacists, parent an deven to physicians about the possible unwanted side effects of topical steroid use. The common communication tools should be used for this purpase, because the number of the similar case reports are increasing from Turkey are too many
