ABSTRACT

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that affects millions of individuals worldwide. Its management requires a multidisciplinary approach, including skin care, pharmacotherapy, and environmental modifications. This review article provides an overview of the comparative management strategies for atopic dermatitis, including topical corticosteroids, topical calcineurin inhibitors, systemic immunomodulators, and phototherapy. The benefits and limitations of each treatment option are discussed, along with the potential adverse effects and the importance of patient education and counseling. While there is no cure for atopic dermatitis, an individualized treatment plan can help to control symptoms, reduce flares, and improve the quality of life for patients with this chronic condition. Keywords: Atopic dermatitis, chronic inflammatory, systemic immunomodulators and phototherapy
