Abstract
Relevance. The article is devoted to a topical problem - treatment and prevention of atopic dermatitis in children, which occurs most often in the practice of pediatricians and dermatologists, taking leading positions among the diseases of childhood. The prevalence of atopic dermatitis among children’s population is about 20%. To treat atopic dermatitis, along with diet and drug therapy, the possibility of using probiotics is being discussed. Literary analysis and practical experience show the significant role of probiotics in the prevention and treatment of atopic dermatitis patients. Due to the unfavourable environmental situation, changing nutrition patterns and increasing percentage of children on complementary feeding, there is a steady increase in allergic diseases in children worldwide. Aim. The aim of the study was to justify the efficacy and safety of probiotics for the recovery of intestinal microbiocenosis in integrated therapy and prevention of atopic dermatitis in children.
Materials and methods. As materials of the study the review of the literature sources and clinical cases of complex treatment of atopic dermatitis with addition of probiotics Linex baby® to the basic therapy are presented. Clinical manifestations of the disease were assessed. Addition of probiotic Linex baby® contributed to a marked decrease in the typical clinical manifestations of the disease, the intensity of itching, and the resolution of rashes in a shorter period of time compared to patients in whom no probiotics were used.
Conclusions. Thus, the addition of probiotic Linex baby® to the basic therapy of atopic dermatitis contributed to a shortening of the period of exacerbation of the disease and marked improvement of the clinical picture of the disease, which confirms the prospects and feasibility of probiotic drugs in the treatment of this disease.
