Abstract

randomised controlled studies in psoriasis, " insulin dependent diabetes mellitus,'2 and uveitis'3; and promising results have been obtained in rheumatoid arthritis,"4 myasthenia gravis,5 primary biliary cirrhosis,'6 and Crohn's disease.'7 Its efficacy has also been shown in uncontrolled trials in the nephrotic syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, and various dermatological and haematological disorders, although not in multiple sclerosis. " In psoriasis in particular, cyclosporin has been shown to be effective and safe for up to one year provided that the guidelines for treatment are strictly observed. 19 Long term experience in these conditions is still limited.
