Abstract
In past years, the use of vitamin D has acquired interest in the treatment of certain common skin disorders such as atopic dermatitis and chronic urticaria. Currently, there are controversial results in the studies carried out and there is no clear indication for systematic preventive or therapeutic use of vitamin D in these skin disorders. In this article we reviewed the effects of prenatal and postnatal preventive use of vitamin D in the development of skin diseases in the newborn such as atopic dermatitis. There is also revised the treatment effect of vitamin D in chronic urticaria, and atopic dermatitis.
