Steroid induced rosacea is an Iatrogenesis iatrogenic condition induced by the physician or patient from the use of either systemic steroid or topical steroids. It is nearly identical to steroid induced acne from the standpoint of etiology. ref http dermnetnz.org acne steroid rosacea.html ref Etiology Steroid induced rosacea can be caused by the prolonged used of a topical steroid on the face. Topical steroid comes in 7 different strengths Some countries use 4 categories . Class I is superpotent, and class VII is very weak. Usually, any categories of steroids over class VI can induce rosacea with prolonged use. The presentation is typically of inflammatory acne lesions consisting of pustules, papules, and cysts. The patient often admits to the daily use of a topical steroid, often being under the advisement of a physician. Examination of the pustules often revealed inflammatory cells, and in many cases, numerous motile demodex mites. Treatment Treatment often involve the gradual weaning off the topical steroid, and the use of a systemic antiinflammatory antibiotic. If the patient is using a strong topical steroid, he or she is weaned to a weaker class VI or VII steroid. Usually they are to use the substitute steroid daily, then only on weekends, then stop completely. The facial dermatitis and discomfort often worsen when they stop the offending steroid. The oral antibiotic will decrease the inflammatory nature of the lesions. The antibiotic of choice is usually a tetracycline antibiotic. Additionally, Tacrolimus combined with oral antibiotics has proven to speed up the recovery process. ref http www.rosacea.net steroid.html ref ref http dermnetnz.org acne steroid rosacea.html ... should be applied to the face.

Steroid diabetes also steroid induced diabetes is a medical term referring to prolonged hyperglycemia due to glucocorticoid therapy for another medical condition. It is usually, but not always, a transient condition. Medical conditions The most common glucocorticoids which cause steroid diabetes are prednisolone and dexamethasone given systemically in pharmacologic doses for days or weeks. Typical medical conditions in which steroid diabetes arises during high dose glucocorticoid treatment include severe asthma , organ transplant ation, cystic fibrosis , inflammatory bowel disease , and induction chemotherapy for leukemia or other cancer s. Insulin Glucocorticoids oppose insulin action and stimulate gluconeogenesis , especially in the liver , resulting in a net increase in hepatic glucose output. Most people can produce enough extra insulin to compensate for this effect and maintain normal glucose levels, but those who cannot develop steroid diabetes.
