Abstract;We conducted a use testing with AT lotion developed for dry skin on the head of 19 atopic dermatitis patients. The symptoms of dandruff, dry skin, scaling, itching and a stretch feeling singnificantly improved. The safety level of AT lotion included 17 (90%) patients who felt safe, 1 (5%) who felt not safe and 1 (15%) who felt harmful. The useful level of AT lotion included 1 (5%) which was excellent, 6 (32%) which were good, 8 (47%) which were slightly better, 1 (5%) which had no change and 2 (11%) which were not good. We concluded that AT lotion was useful for dry skin of atopic dermatitis patients heads'. (author abst.)
