Summary

While the repair of the epidermal barrier in atopic dermatitis is of major importance in the treatment of atopic dermatitis, most of the vehicles used may actually cause a worsening of an impaired epidermal barrier. Hydrogel vehicle is anecdotally known to be moisturizing and hydrating.This study will compare the use of Hydrogel vehicle and Eucerin Lotion in maintaining the epidermal barrier in subjects with atopic dermatitis.
