The pharmacology of the most important immunosuppressive agents in dermatology: glucocorticoids, azathioprine, cyclophosphamide, methotrexate and chlorambucil are reviewed. Our own results of treatment with these drugs (102 patients, diagnosis: lupus erythematosus, dermatomyositis, scleroderma, overlap-syndrome, pemphigus vulgaris, bullous pemphigoid, cryoglobulinaemic purpura, and pyoderma gangraenosum) are presented.
