Abstract

Described herein are emulsions and compositions for the treatment of various dermatoses. The emulsions may be formulated as aerosol compositions. The aerosol propellant may be a hydrofluoroalkane propellant. Also described are methods of treating dermatoses, comprising the step of applying to an affected area of a subject in need thereof a therapeutically-effective amount of an inventive emulsion or aerosol composition. The dermatosis may be atopic dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis, or radiation dermatitis.
