[Recommendations and guidelines for the treatment of atopic dermatitis].
Till now no causal and healing treatment of atopic dermatitis (a. D.) is known. About this fact and about the relapsing course of a. D. the parents of the atopic children have to be informed before starting treatment. The principles of treatment are avoiding of pruritus and scratching, keeping the skin cool and humid, and avoiding of bacterial superinfections. Topic steroid-treatment is very effective, dose and application however have to be strongly controlled. The nutrition of children with a. D. should be as normal as possible, extreme regimes of diet have to be avoided. Very essential is a consequent cure of the skin, especially in the symptom-free intervals, keeping the skin cool and humid and avoiding all mechanical and chemical irritants.
