Application of immunosuppressants in pediatric atopic dermatitis / 中华皮肤科杂志

ABSTRACT

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is an inflammatory skin disease commonly complicated by atopic diseases such as asthma and allergic rhinitis,and occurs most frequently in children.Due to severe conditions and recurrent attacks,severe AD seriously affects the quality of life in patients and their families,and systemic treatments are needed.With further studies on immunosuppressants and expansion of their indications in recent years,immunosuppressants have become an important immunotherapy of AD.However,for special populations,especially children,the efficacy and safety of immunosuppressants are still needed to be evaluated for the treatment of AD through basic researches and randomized controlled clinical trials,so as to provide more information for clinical medication as well as better guidance for clinical treatment.
