Abstract:Although rare, cases of infantile or childhood bullous pemphigoid are increasingly being reported in the literature. Treatment challenges, which are amplified in infancy, necessitate balancing efficacy and avoiding long‐term risks. In this report, clarithromycin was successfully used to establish and maintain disease remission, offering insights into its immunomodulatory effects, making it a compelling steroid‐sparing choice with a favorable side effect profile.
