Key clinical point: Antioxidants show favorable efficacy and safety as an adjunct therapy for atopic dermatitis (AD), particularly when supplemented with oral vitamin D and topical vitamin B12.
Major finding: Overall, antioxidants vs placebo were associated with a significant reduction in disease severity scores (P < .0001), with a significant decrease in AD severity observed for oral supplementation with vitamin D (P = .01); combined vitamins D and E (P = .003); combined vitamins A, D, and E (P = .02); and topical vitamin B12 (P < .0001). No serious adverse events were reported.
Study details: Findings are from a meta-analysis of 18 studies including 763 patients with AD.
Disclosures: This study did not receive any funding. No conflict of interests was reported.
