The study included children (n = 20) with atoral dermatitis of moderate severity. The studied patients were divided into 2 groups: group 1 (n = 10) received synbiotic containing Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG in combination with topical anti-inflammatory therapy and the hypoallergenic diet group 2 (n = 10) received topical anti-inflammatory therapy and the hypoallergenic diet. When comparing the data obtained in the group of children treated with synbiotic containing Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and the control group obtained a significant decrease of the SCORAD index by the end of 2 weeks (p1<0,01) in group 1. Reliable clinical positive dynamics in patients of the 2nd group was mentioned only at the end of the 3rd week.
