Meta-analysis of tacrolimus ointment for atopic dermatitis in pediatric patients.

Pediatr Dermatol. 2008 Jan-Feb;25(1):117-20

Authors: Yan J, Chen SL, Wang XL, Zhou W, Wang FS

We evaluated the efficacy and safety of tacrolimus ointment in the treatment of the pediatric patients with atopic dermatitis. Tacrolimus ointment therapy resulted in the remission of atopic dermatitis, this effect of tacrolimus ointment strengths 0.03% and 0.1% were better than those of 1% hydrocortisone acetate and 1% pimecrolimus. Difference between the 0.03% tacrolimus group and the 0.1% tacrolimus group was not statistically significant.
