En 2022 se desarrolló la guía de dermatitis atópica (DA) para México (GUIDAMEX-2022) con metodología ADAPTE. El objetivo del grupo de desarrollo de la guía es generar GUIDAMEX 1.1 con actualizaciones puntuales. Ante nuevas aprobaciones globales, formulamos 10 preguntas clínicas clave y, con evidencia de guías internacionales actualizadas, costos, seguridad y contexto mexicano, emitimos recomendaciones (R) y sugerencias (S) y puntos de buena práctica para orientar práctica clínica nacional. Así, GUIDAMEX 1.1 hace una sugerencia condicional para considerar como objetivo de tratamiento para DA medidas de prevención terciaria (priorizando evitar desarrollo de comorbilidades alérgicas). Existe evidencia limitada para inmunoterapia específica de alérgeno y cuestionada para dupilumab. También sugiere contemplar la actividad mínima de la enfermedad con EASI-90/100 y metas de tratamiento formulados por el paciente. Se agregan a las indicaciones de GUIDAMEX-2022 otros medicamentos con recomendación (R) o sugerencia (S). Tratamiento tópico: crisaborol (R, aprobado en México para ≥ 3 meses), y tapinarof, ruxolitinib y roflumilast (S) con aprobaciones por agencias internacionales (FDA o EMA). Tratamiento sistémico: dupilumab (R, ≥ 6 meses), baricitinib (S, ≥ 2 años), lebrikizumab y nemolizumab (S, ≥ 12 años); y aprobado por la FDA o la EMA, el tralokinumab (S). En conclusión los avances en DA permiten metas ambiciosas; GUIDAMEX actualizado brinda en México indicaciones y posología de tratamientos vigentes.

The atopic dermatitis (AD) guideline for Mexico (GUIDAMEX-2022) was developed using the ADAPTE methodology. The objective of the guideline development groups was to generate GUIDAMEX 1.1 with timely updates. In response to new global approvals, we formulated 10 key clinical questions and, based on evidence from updated international guidelines, costs, safety, and the Mexican context, we issued recommendations (R) and suggestions (S) and good practice points to guide national AD management. GUIDAMEX 1.1 makes a conditional suggestion to consider tertiary prevention measures as a treatment objective (prioritizing the prevention of allergic comorbidities). There is some evidence for dupilumab and allergen-specific immunotherapy, but it is limited. We also suggest considering minimal disease activity with EASI-90/100 and patient-defined treatment goals. Additional medications with recommendation (R) or suggestion (S) are added to the GUIDAMEX-2022 indications. Topical management: crisaborole (R, approved in Mexico for ≥ 3 months); and tapinarof, ruxolitinib, and roflumilast (S) with approvals from international agencies (FDA or EMA). Systemic management: dupilumab (R, ≥ 6 months), baricitinib (S, ≥ 2 years), lebrikizumab and nemolizumab (S, ≥ 12 years); and FDA or EMA-approved, tralokinumab (S). Thus, advances in atopic dermatitis allow for ambitious clinical goals. The ongoing update of GUIDAMEX offers prescribers in Mexico the latest indications and dosages for AD treatments.

Antiasthma Drugs: Mast Cell Stabilizers and Anti-IgE Drugs
Mast cell stabilizers, such as cromolyn (also known as sodium cromoglycate) and nedocromil (Tilade), are effective drugs in asthma management. These stabilizers hinder histamine release by skillfully obstructing the activation of mast cells and other cellular entities. Notably, they navigate this task without...
