Executive summary:

Overall there is proven broad exposure related to the therapeutic topical use of fluocortolone and related substances and there is a very low incidence of positive patch test reactions compared to the very substantial therapeutic use in patients with skin diseases. Therefore based on the available reliable and relevant human data the assessment of the skin sensitization potential (hazard identification) is possible. Based on all available data fluocortolone and structurally related substances are unlikely to be significant skin sensitizers and the criteria for classification are not met.
