pubmed:abstractText |
Allergic contact dermatitis is a highly prevalent, potentially chronic disease, with a significant economic and quality of life impact. Culprit causal allergen(s) can be identified though patch testing, the 'gold-standard' diagnostic method. For most people, identification and subsequent avoidance of their clinically relevant allergens will results in resolution of the dermatitis. However, when an avoidance regimen is not possible, or an allergen is not identified, patients potentially require symptomatic and immunosuppressive therapy to diminish the manifestations of their disease. This article reviews a therapeutic approach to allergic contact dermatitis.
