Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Single center, randomized, controlled, evaluator blinded, within-subject study to evaluate the irritation potential of diacerein1% ointment on normal skin of healthy volunteers, using a cumulative irritancy patch test (CIPT) procedure.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study was designed to assess the cumulative irritation potential of diacerein 1% ointment in comparison with vehicle ointment, 0.2% sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) (positive control), and 0.9% saline (negative control) on normal skin of healthy volunteers using a cumulative irritancy patch test (CIPT) procedure applied once daily for 21 days.
