Relevance of research. In the general structure of dermatological diseases, more than a third of the total number of requests are for chronic allergic dermatoses, which include atopic dermatitis[1]. Among the variety of clinical variants of these diseases, most are[2] limited forms that do not require long-term systemic therapy, and their treatment is limited to the use of topical agents[3]. The pathogenesis of these dermatoses involves changes in keratinization processes in the epidermis, which invariably leads to increased water loss and increased skin permeability, thereby stimulating increased local inflammation [4].
One of the most important stages of external therapy for chronic allergic dermatoses (atopic dermatitis, chronic eczema) is moisturizing and softening the skin of patients[5]. The main source that normalizes transepidermal water loss are lipids (fatty acids, triglycerides, phospholipids, cholesterol). Currently, cosmeceuticals containing the above substances are widely used in dermatology. The process of restoring pathologically altered skin in patients with atopic dermatitis sometimes takes weeks, or even months; accordingly, the exchange rate cost of these products can vary from hundreds to several thousand rubles.
A good alternative to the group of products described above that restore the barrier functions of the epidermis is the domestic cosmetic product - Kartalin ointment (certificate of conformity No. 7147870). This product belongs to the group of solidol-containing ointments (Rybakov’s ointment, etc.), which has been used in the treatment of chronic dermatoses for decades [6].
Based on the above, the purpose of our work was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the use of Kartalin ointment in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD).
Methods and materials. To achieve our goal, 46 patients with atopic dermatitis were examined and treated in the clinic of skin diseases of the State Educational Institution of Higher Professional Education "Siberian State Medical University". The criteria for inclusion in the groups were: clinical confirmed diagnosis; informed consent of patients; adolescence and adulthood; lichenoid and squamous clinical forms with lichenification. The exclusion criteria from the study groups were: diffuse form of blood pressure; severe course; infancy and childhood; individual intolerance to ointment components; complications in the form of pyoderma.
All patients were divided into two groups. The first group (n=26) consisted of patients who received Kartalin ointment as external therapy for 2 months. The second group (n=20) consisted of patients receiving external therapy, which included indifferent and moisturizing ointments and cosmeceuticals. The SCORAD index was used to determine the severity of atopic dermatitis. At the beginning of the course of therapy, the SCORAD index was equal to: in the first group - 59 points, in the second group - 60 points. At the end of the treatment, it was equal in group 1 - 14 points and, accordingly, in group 2 - 18 points (Diagram 1).
The Hanifin scoring system (Hanifin JM, 1989) was used to assess the degree of response to topical therapy by treated and untreated sites before and after topical therapy for the first two weeks of treatment. When assessing the severity of atopic dermatitis (itching, erythema, infiltration), the scores in both groups were the same and equaled 6 points. After a two-week period of external treatment, this index in both groups decreased to 1.5 points, which is reflected in Diagram 2.
Based on the above material, the following conclusions can be drawn:
- Kartalin ointment can be used as monotherapy for mild to moderate atopic dermatitis with squamous manifestations and lichenification in outpatient and outpatient settings.
- The drug "Kartalin" is effective in the external treatment of atopic dermatitis (reduction of the SCORAD index by 76% and the Hanifin index by 75%).
- "Kartalin" can be recommended as a skin care product for patients with atopic dermatitis during remission.

What does Kartalin contain:
- Lysozyme (antibacterial enzyme).
- Natural oils of lavender, eucalyptus.
- Vitamin A.
- Extracts of medicinal herbs.
- Salicylic acid.
- Honey.
- Solid oil.
Lysozyme
Natural protein enzymes with antibiotic action. Lysozyme destroys bacterial cell membranes. Thanks to this component, Kartalin reduces inflammation and acts as a local antiseptic.
Essential oils
Oils of natural origin, especially lavender, are considered one of the most effective ingredients in the treatment of various types of dermatological diseases. In the case of psyriazom, lavender oil inhibits the action of bacteria on the surface of the skin, stimulates healing, relieves dryness and itching of the skin, and reduces the risk of scarring. Considering that this ointment also contains salicylic acid, which has a drying effect, natural vegetable oils compensate for this effect and moisturize the skin.
Vitamin A
This component has a wide range of actions. For Kartalin cream, the ability of the vitamin to fight dryness and relieve local inflammation is important.
Healing herbs
Chamomile and chamomile have long been known skin care products. Relieves irritation and itching. Due to the high content of tannins, the extract from this herb accelerates the healing of wounds and is an auxiliary antiseptic.
Salicylic acid
One of the most inexpensive but effective remedies for treating skin inflammation.
Honey
Safe, powerful antiseptic. A natural wound healing agent, time-tested.

An unexpected component, which in the last few years has been recognized as one of the most effective for the treatment of psoriasis. This component should not be confused with the well-known machine grease (technical oil). Kartalina contains medical solid oil, which has completely different properties, chemical composition, has undergone a multi-stage cleansing process and is absolutely safe for the skin. But machine grease may contain toxic impurities.
Compound
- Solidol is a grease obtained by thickening industrial oils of medium viscosity with calcium soaps of higher fatty acids

The course should be divided into two clear stages - restoration and fixation of the result.
