Abstract

The problem of side-effects of injectable corticosteroids has gradually become more acute with rampant and unlimited misuse of the drug, particularly by non-dermatologists. Serial saline injections at the site of steroid-induced lipoatrophy in a child served as a safe, relatively rapid, and cost-effective solution.
