“…A range of treatments are recommended for AD, including emollients (e.g., creams, lotions, ointments), topical corticosteroids (e.g., hydrocortisone, triamcinolone acetonide), topical calcineurin inhibitors (tacrolimus, pimecrolimus), PDE4 inhibitors (crisaborole 2%), systemic oral and injectable treatments, and phototherapy. AD is typically treated as a single entity despite its heterogeneous nature [68], with numerous guidelines recommending stepwise therapy initiated according to disease severity [60,[68][69][70][71][72][73]. Current practice has evolved away from an emphasis solely on controlling acute flares to a more holistic, long-term approach that focuses on comprehensive disease management via the combination of baseline maintenance treatments in tandem with intermittent use of topical corticosteroids (TCS), topical calcineurin inhibitors (TCI), or a PDE4 inhibitor (crisaborole 2%) as needed for more acute manifestations of AD.…”
