Abstract
- The article offers information on a study which deals with atopic eczema (AE) which is the most common chronic inflammatory skin disease. It mentions information on association between AE severity and the likelihood to use emollients and topical steroids. It states that topical steroids and emollients remain the mainstay of treatment but there are many barriers to medication adherence, including topical steroid phobia and the daily burden of complex topical treatments.
