When a baby has eczema, it is very important to use medication with caution, because the baby is very small and many drugs are very sensitive to the baby. If a medication is used incorrectly, it can lead to danger. Therefore, if medication must be used to treat the baby's eczema, before using a medication, parents must first consult a doctor to avoid secondary injury to the baby. (1) Systemic treatment ① Antihistamines mainly have a calming and antipruritic effect. The commonly used dosage is 4 mg of chlorpheniramine, 3 times a day. It is best to continue using it for a few days after the child's skin lesions have subsided. ② Antibiotics should be given appropriately for cases with extensive skin lesions, erosion, and exudation, even if there are no obvious signs of bacterial infection. Such as erythromycin 250 mg, 4 times a day. ③ In principle, steroid hormones are not used in general cases, but atopic asthma is an exception. For severe cases, it can be used for a short period of time (2 to 3 weeks) to control symptoms as quickly as possible. ④Immunosuppressants include azathioprine, cyclosporine A (CYA) and interferon. There is currently insufficient data to confirm its efficacy in treating AD. (2) Local treatment ① Steroid hormones are used for skin lesions with severe inflammation but no obvious erosion or exudation. During the treatment, change the types appropriately. Use strong ones at first to control the symptoms as quickly as possible, and then gradually switch to medium and low-efficiency ones after a few days. For skin lesions in different parts of the body, attention should also be paid to the selection of varieties. If the skin lesions are extensive, especially in infants and young children, it is advisable to use a weaker or lower concentration preparation ②Antibiotics are used for infected skin lesions. Often used in combination with steroid hormones. ③ Tars such as coal tar and bran oil are effective against AD. Pastes are commonly used and applied alone or in combination with hormone preparations. There are many types of baby eczema gels that can treat baby eczema, but the effects of different brands are different. Before using it, we’d better understand the ingredients and usage range of the baby eczema gel. This can reduce a lot of unnecessary accidents. After all, taking medicine for babies is such a cautious matter. |
