Abstract

The repair and maintenance of the epidermal barrier is of the utmost importance in the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD). While barrier creams and emollients are considered to be a foundation of AD therapy, there is little comparative data between various product options. This was a pilot study with a small sample size to investigate the use of skin barrier emulsion cream vs a commonly used moisturizing lotion to improve the epidermal barrier in subjects with atopic dermatitis.
