Abstract
Topical therapy of atopic dermatitis in children is a complex and multifactorial problem.

Topical treatment’s «Gold standard» is topical corticosteroids. The application of these medicines is not limited to conventional dosage forms such as cream and ointment. The features of the new formulations are presented (emulsions with different lipid concentration), the recommendations on their practical use are stated, the clinical experience of their application in the treatment of children with atopic dermatitis is described.
