Treatment options for atopic dermatitis in children

MUDr. Stanislava Polášková

The article summarizes the treatment options and principles for atopic dermatitis (AD) in children which are based on the knowledge of
aetiopathogenesis and pathophysiology of AD. The mainstays of AD treatment have remained the same; however, some recommendations
have changed due to updated knowledge (e. g. atopic skin hygiene, pattern of use of local corticosteroids and local immunomodulators).
Due to updated knowledge on AD and a wide choice of local agents, the management of atopic patients can be individualized and
continues to improve. Biological therapy, which is still in the phase of clinical trials, appears to be most effective in the most severe cases.

Keywords: atopic dermatitis, causes of AD, skin barrier, immunological dysfunction, treatment of AD, local treatment, physicaltreatment, systemic treatment
