Brief Summary  

Atopic dermatitis, also called atopic eczema, is a persistent inflammatory condition involving skin, characterized by recurring periods of exacerbation and improvement, impacting approximately 10% individuals at some point in their lives. Atopic dermatitis arises from a multifaceted mechanism involving immune system dysfunction, genetic mutations in the epidermis, and environmental influences. This interaction disrupts the skin’s outer layer, leading to the development of intensely itchy skin lesions.

  Topical corticosteroids (TCSs) are frequently employed as the primary therapeutic approach for treating atopic dermatitis, but their safety profile is a matter of concern on long term use. Tacrolimus is a topically used inhibitor of calcineurin that specifically hinders the activation of T cells and mast cells. Prescribers frequently suggest Tacrolimus as the initial treatment for atopic dermatitis in sensitive skin areas. Crisaborole 2% - the topically used inhibitor of PDE-4 approved for AD – has only been tested against placebo, and not against active treatment arms yet. There is lack of comparative efficacy, safety, and economic analysis among TCS, Tacrolimus and Crisaborole in patients presenting with mild to moderate AD.

 90 patients will be enrolled with mild to moderate Atopic dermatitis and they will be randomized in ratio of 1:1:1 to topical age-appropriate dose of Tacrolimus group, topical 2% Crisaborole group and active control group of topical 0.1% Mometasone. Each group will be followed up after 2 weeks, and after 4 weeks for assessment of the efficacy, safety and economical outcomes.
