Summary:

      The objective of this trial is to compare the vasoconstriction potential
    

Eligibility criteria:

        Inclusion Criteria:

          1. Male or female subjects aged 18 years to 50 years old having signed and dated an
             informed consent,

          2. Non-smoker subjects,

          3. Subjects demonstrating adequate vasoconstriction to Diprolene® cream within 15 days
             prior to dosing (unoccluded application of Diprolene® cream for 4-6 hours must show a
             visual score of skin blanching of at least one unit (visual scale (0-4)),

          4. Subjects without signs of skin irritation/disease/disorders/symptoms or blemishes on
             test sites (e.g. erythema, dryness, roughness, scaling, scars, moles, sunburn),

          5. Female subjects of non-childbearing potential defined as surgically sterile or
             post-menopausal (at least one year post cessation of menses),

          6. Female subjects of childbearing potential who have been, in the opinion of the
             Investigator, using an approved method of birth control (e.g. oral contraception pill
             or patch, intra-uterine devices, contraceptive implants or vaginal rings, condoms,
             bilateral tubal ligation) at trial entry and agree to continue until the end of the
             last trial visit,

          7. Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test at
             screening visit and at Day 1 to continue,

          8. Subjects willing and able to follow all the trial procedures and complete the whole
             trial,

          9. Subjects affiliated to a social security system.

        Exclusion Criteria:

          1. Female subjects who are breastfeeding,

          2. Use of topical corticosteroids on the test areas (forearms) within 4 weeks prior to
             the screening phase,

          3. Use of systemic drugs which may interfere with the blanching reaction including, but
             not limited to, corticosteroids and other vasoactive drugs (nitrates derivatives,
             antihypertensive, phenylpropanolamine, diphenhydramine, pseudo-ephedrine,
             antihistamines, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and aspirin/acetylsalicylic
