Efficacy and tolerability of topical pimecrolimus and tacrolimus in the treatment of atopic dermatitis: meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials
They work mainly by reducing inflammation (pain, heat, redness and swelling) by ‘switching off’ the activities of certain immune system cells that can cause the skin to become red and broken
03% ointment applied twice daily; seven were vehicle controlled and seven used an active comparator
TCS was ranked among the best treatments for maintaining long-term control, followed by topical tacrolimus and pimecrolimus

Pimecrolimus vs tacrolimus for the topical treatment of unresponsive In light of this, topical pimecrolimus and tacrolimus preparations were developed
In a controlled, randomized, double-blinded, right-left comparison study we investigated the effect of pimecrolimus (PIM) cream compared with triamcinolone acetonide cream (TA) on the skin barrier in 15 patients with symmetrical elbow lesions of AD
Both agents have a similar safety profile
