Itching

Children with atopic dermatitis generally experienced the most intense itching in the early evening or bedtime, approximately 3 hours before they fell asleep, according to a study published in Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology.

Dextenza demonstrated a statistically significant mean change in ocular itching scores from baseline in patients with allergic conjunctivitis, according to a press release from Ocular Therapeutix.

Children aged 6 to 11 years with severe atopic dermatitis assigned dupilumab and topical corticosteroids significantly improved in measures of overall disease severity, skin clearing, itching and health-related quality of life vs. topical corticosteroids alone in a phase 3 trial.
