Good Morning Bob, I have been wanting to post for the last 30 minutes, but Jump Start 3rd Grade was stuck in my CD-ROM and causing all kind of problems. I finally got that rascal out and am back in business. Just goes to show you what kind of problems continuing education can cause<g>. FWIW, the April 1999 Pharmacist Letter had a section on Panretin: "The FDA just approved Panretin(Pan-RET-in, alitretinoin)gel, the first TOPICAL treatment for Kaposi's sarcoma. Alitretinoin is a form of retinoic acid. It's applied to skin lesions to inhibit cell growth...it doesn't prevent new lesions or treat systemic disease. Tell patients to apply Panretin gel BID to QID. Advise them to apply it less frequently if it causes too much skin irritation. You may be shocked at the price...over $2000 for a 60 g tube. Tell patients it actually cost less than other treatments for Kaposi's sarcoma...chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery." Have a great day, Greg
