Hand eczema is a common multi-etiological disease manifested by evolutionary polymorphism of rashes. Hand eczema develops against the background of altered reactivity and genetic predisposition under the adverse effects of endogenous and exogenous factors. Hand eczema has a chronic course and is characterized by a wide range of clinical manifestations. The prevalence of eczematous lesions of the hands among the adult population is 1–2%, and among all skin diseases – 30–40%. The disease has an extremely negative impact on the quality of life, ability to work, career prospects and the social status of a person. The long course of eczematous lesions of the hands can be complicated by a secondary infection: bacterial and mycotic flora. Therefore, choosing the right and effective treatment for hand eczema is a particularly difficult task for a dermatologist. In recent years, a multicomponent drug based on gentamicin sulfate, dexpanthenol, mometasone furoate and econazole nitrate has been widely used for the treatment of hand eczema due to its high efficacy, tolerability, and safety. The use of this multicomponent drug in monotherapy for hand eczema is effective, leads to clinical remission and restoration of the quality of life of patients and is not accompanied by side effects and complications. This review focuses on the epidemiology, clinical features, and treatment options for hand eczema. Clinical experience with the use of a multicomponent drug in patients with hand eczema complicated by infection is also given.
