[Therapy of atopic dermatitis in children. Study on the use of a desensitizing preparation].

Children with Atopic Dermatitis have been treated with Histaglobin (gamma globulin + histamine) applied by hypodermic injections. The patients (42) were divided into three groups: the first one (ten cases) aged between 9 and 5 years; the second one (eight cases) between 5 and 2 years and the third one (twenty four cases) aged less than two years. The trial has been carried out in two phases: the first one consisted of nine injections with increasing doses ranging from 1/3 to 1 ampoule with 4-6 day intervals; the second one, "the maintenance period", was made by nine injections of 1 ampoule with increasing intervals from two up to four weeks.
