In Germany, more than 2000 new patients per year have been calculated to be diagnosed with autoimmune blistering diseases. In a recent survey, the most frequently applied treatment regimens for bullous pemphigoid were class IV topical corticosteroids and oral prednisolone 0.5 mg or 1.0 mg/kg/d plus dapsone or azathioprine. For pemphigus, two-thirds of the clinics applied oral prednisolone at doses of 1.0 mg or 1.5 mg/kg/d and in more than 80% of departments, azathioprine was chosen as concomitant immunosuppressant. High-dose intravenous immunoglobulin, rituximab, and immunoadsorption are increasingly used for refractory patients. Treatment and diagnostic costs are covered by the health insurances when applied according to published expert recommendations.
