Abstract

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder associated with intense itch/pruritus and skin lesions. Several modalities of treatment including topical therapy, systemic agents and biologics are available for the treatment of disease. Despite this, management poses challenge due to chronic nature and recurrent episodes in many patients. Biologics represent an important option of treatment for patients who do not respond to the traditional treatment.
