Methods Sixty-eight outpatient children with localized dermatitis or eczema were included in this study. All the patients were topically treated by Qingpeng ointment twice daily for a week, which was agreed by their patients. The efficacy was evaluated after the end of the treatment by lesion scores, and adverse reactions during the treatment were recorded. Results Of the 68 patients, 61 completed the trial, 7 withdrew from the trial because of worsened lesions, unfavorable effects and distrust of this drug. The total response rate was 81.4% （31/51） in patients treated with Qingpeng ointment alone. Irritant reaction occured in only one case, but did not influence the treatment. Conclusion Qingpeng ointment displays a favorable efficacy and safety in the treatment of localized dermatitis and eczema in children.
