People with atopic dermatitis have higher rates of allergic diseases than the general population. About 50% of children with atopic dermatitis develop asthma, 33% develop food allergies and children with atopic dermatitis are at a higher risk of developing allergic rhinitis. This is often referred to as the atopic march or allergic march. In this webinar, you’ll learn about this complex relationship.
