Allergic dermatoses have a special place in the structure of allergic diseases in children due to their weight. The most common allergic skin lesions: simple and allergic contact dermatitis, atopic dermatitis, various forms of eczema, acute and chronic allergic urticaria, Quincke's edema, multiforme exudative erythema (Stevens—Johnson syndrome), acute epidermal necrolysis (Lyell's syndrome), toxicodermias, as well as less common dermatoses, in the pathogenesis of which are leading allergic reactions. Despite a number of research research, the difficulties in the determining of the therapeutic approach of allergic dermatoses in children are still observed. According to the international program documents EAACI (European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology), AAAAI (American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology), PRACТALL (Practical Allergology Consensus Report) in treatment of allergic dermatoses the leading place takes external therapy, which requires an individual approach and daily care of skin. External therapy consists of local application of emollients, topical glucocorticosteroids, topical calcineurin inhibitors, topical antihistamines, keratolytic, keratoplastic, reparants, epithelializing and anti-inflammatory medications, in the case of complicated clinical course of the disease — antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral medications, also with skin care.
Purpose — to increase information on modern possibilities of external therapy of allergic dermatoses in children.
External pharmacotherapy of allergic dermatoses should be etiopathogenetic and should affect on the mechanisms of allergic inflammation in the skin, elimination of itching, dryness,so finding ways to improve it will help to control the clinical course of the disease, to reduce disability, will promote to improve the life quality in patients.
