Abstract

The article presents modern ideas about the skin features of children of the first year of life, and discusses factors that increase the risk of atopic dermatitis (AD). Objective: to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the use of the methylprednisolone aceponate emulsion for children of the first year of life suffering from AD. Methods. The emulsion was applied to the inflammation sites of 26 patients of the first year of life who suffered from AD. There were 14 boys and 12 girls aged 4 to 12 months. All patients had erythematous-squamous foci of lesions on the cheeks with elements of exudation, 18 patients had lesions to the skin of the extremities and the buttocks, and the appearance of scaly crusts on the scalp was note in 6 patients. Results. The results obtained confirm the previously described high therapeutic efficacy and safety of topical therapy using the methylprednisolone aceponate emulsion for children of the first year of life. The course of treatment contributed to the rapid regress of the inflammatory phenomena, the restoration of night sleep, the elimination of itching and anxiety. There were no side effects. Conclusion. The efficacy and safety of topical application of 0.1% methylprednisolone aceponate in children of the first year of life, including on vulnerable areas of the skin, has been demonstrated.
