Tacrolimus topique et atteintes cutanées résistantes de la dermatomyosite

Tacrolimus is an immunosuppressive agent and topical tacrolimus is used for the treatment of atopic dermatitis and has been occasionally used to treat skin involvement of some systemic inflammatory diseases. Topical tacrolimus seems to be a good therapeutic alternative for resistant skin lesions of dermatomyositis. It could also be proposed as a first intention therapy because of its good tolerance.
