A 5 years and 3 months old female toddler, who suffered from atopic dermatitis, came to
Taoyuan Chang Gung Memorial Hospital on September 10, 2021, due to aggravated skin itching for 2 months. Her symptoms were controlled under steroids, cyclosporine, and cyproheptadine, however got worsened after discontinuation of the steroid intake. The traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) pattern was identified as wind, dampness, and heat mixed type. Therefore, Xiao Feng San was given to clear heat, remove dampness, dispell pathogenic wind, and nourish blood.
After 4 months of treating with TCM, the symptoms improved, and medicine was discontinued.
It shows that atopic dermatitis can be well treated under the pattern identification and treatment
of traditional Chinese medicine. And TCM can be used as an alternative therapy for reducing
steroids usage.
