“…Other immune suppressors which can be used are as follows: azathioprine (selective use; it is considered to be a second-line medication for adults, after cyclosporine, having the risk of bone marrow suppression), methotrexate (selective use, having similar efficacy to azathioprine; it is considered a second-line treatment in pediatric and adult cases of moderate-to severe AD, after cyclosporine), mycophenolate mofetil (it has low recommendation evidence levels; prolonged treatment presents the risk of herpes infection). 12 , 14 Dupilumab, an anti–IL-4–receptor α mono-clonal antibody which is approved by both the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for use in moderate-to-severe cases of AD in adolescents and adults, has the capacity to bind to the shared α-chain receptor of both IL-4 and IL-13, having a partial limiting effect on the inflammation driven by the Th2 activity. 11–13 Thus being said, although many patients benefitted from it (with total response and/or no side effects), it might have limited use because not all patients respond to this treatment, they can present a partial response to it, they can develop tolerance or might not even want it due to its administering pathway (subcutaneous injections); it also determines injection site adverse reactions, neck and/or face erythema, conjunctivitis.…”

“…The most notable change in guidelines for the treatment of AD in South Korea is the recommendation of dupilumab as an important treatment option for patients with moderate-to-severe AD 29 , 30 . Likewise, a recent study based on German AD registry reported dupilumab to be the leading treatment among the patients with moderate-to-severe AD 31 .…”

“…Conventional systemic management of AD consists of corticosteroids and immunosuppressants such as cyclosporine A and methotrexate ( 44 ). Topical treatment of AD includes corticosteroids and calcineurin inhibitors ( 26 ).…”
