AD if a very frequent allergic skin disorders in children. Produce a negative significant impact on quality of life and related costs. Recently the changes of skin microbiota had been related with inadequate evolution of atopic dermatitis.

  1. reuteri had been identified with some effect to reduce skin inflammation and help to modulate inflammatory pathways on skin. Investigators expect using topical L. reuteri as adjuvant some improvement on skin appearance due to the mode of action previous referenced additionally to some potential changes on microbiome
