The fixed-combination of Cal/BD aerosol foam is now entering the Italian market. This drug was developed with a technology that allows an enhanced penetration of the active ingredients into the skin. This enhanced penetration improves local bioavailability and, consequently, Cal/BD aerosol foam therapy is associated with improved clinical outcomes if compared with other products with the same components. The efficacy and safety of Cal/BD aerosol foam were confirmed both in clinical trials and in “field-practice” studies. This short review discusses current evidence on the Cal/BD aerosol foam combination; some preliminary data collected in the Italian clinical practice will be also presented.
