Abstract

27 patients with pustulosis palmaris et plantaris were treated daily with colchicine 0.5 mg X 3 for four weeks in a double-blind study. Only ten patients experienced a halt of pustule formation, whereas redness, scaling, and subjective symptoms were unchanged. Colchicine seems of limited value in patients with pustulosis palmaris et plantaris.
