Skin infections may complicate the treatment of atopic dermatitis.The use of topical
ointments has become very important to avoid the use of oral antibiotics. There is little
supporting literature regarding the use of topical antibiotics in secondarily infected atopic
dermatitis.
This study will investigate the safety and effectiveness of Altabax ointment use in treating
secondarily infected atopic dermatitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus
