OMAHA, Neb.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by dry skin, intense itching and recurrent relapsing eczematous lesions with a heterogeneous clinical presentation. AD lesions are characterized by erythema (skin turning red or purple depending on normal skin color), induration (hardening)/papulation (formulation of papules), lichenification, oozing/crusting. AD affects up to 10% of adults worldwide. 

Amber Specialty Pharmacy’s high touch, whole-health service model will support affected patients and dermatology offices throughout the country.

“Uncontrolled Atopic Dermatitis causes pain and even embarrassment and can make day-to-day tasks feel overwhelming. We understand how important it is to make sure patients living with AD have the medicine and support they need to manage their condition,” said Casey Decker, president of Amber Specialty Pharmacy. “We are proud that LEO Pharma recognizes our passion and ability to deliver meaningful results to our patients.”
