Abstract
Diaper dermatitis occurs in 40% of children in the first year of life [1, 17, 18]. The risk of diaper dermatitis is low when diapers are changed six or more times per day, at breastfeeding and home care (versus nurseries and kindergartens). Risk of diaper dermatitis sharply increases at diarrhea or oral administration of amoxicillin. Bepanten is recommended for the prevention and treatment of uncomplicated diaper dermatitis.
