Abstract
Recently, dupilumab treatment in atopic dermatitis (AD) has been an effective and safe option in terms of adverse effects. However, combination therapies can sometimes be better at increasing efficacy or reducing adverse effects or cumulative doses. Early combination therapies may be more rational, especially considering that dupilumab treatment alone is less effective and has a late-onset efficacy. Here, we discussed dupilumab and a short-term narrowband ultraviolet B combination therapy in a child with AD.
