We present three cases of impetigo and one case of bullous pemphigoid neonatorum that benefited from the homeopathic remedy Antimonium crudum, which has a wide spectrum of dermatological applications when prescribed according to symptom similarity. Further larger clinical studies are necessary to establish its role in pediatric dermatology.
Homeopathic Antimonium crudum may be useful in many pediatric skin conditions if prescribed on symptom similarity. It may especially be helpful in reducing the use of antibiotics and steroids in this age‐group if proven to be effective through larger scientific studies.
