Resumen
VIVODA, JL et al. Actinic prurigo: treatment with tacrolimus: Favorable response in two pediatric patients. Rev. argent. dermatol. [online]. 2015, vol.96, n.3, pp.30-34. ISSN 1851-300X.
Actinic prurigo is a chronic idiopathic photo dermatosis which is more common in high-altitude living people, mainly in indigenous descendants, affecting skin exposed to light. The disease is characterized by clinical polymorphism, involving 45% ocular manifestations and between 30-70% of labial semi mucous. Treatment is based on: photo protection, antihistamines, corticosteroids, thalidomide, among others. We present two patients diagnosed with actinic prurigo who performed treatment with topical tacrolimus, showing a successful clinical response.
