Will Atonide Gel Affect 5 Month Old Baby Skin?

Hi Doctor My son is 5 months old and his pediatrician has diagnosed with dermatitis . He has prescribed to use atogla cream and atonide and has given him a shampoo (Spoo) and bath soap (Cetaphil baby) as well. He mentioned that atonide is a mild steroid which has put me in dilemma. Is this a safe cream to use ? Also the scar us there on is cheek and right leg (in a small circle with small red boils) and right below his neck (along the neck line few red boils). Is this condition actually hyper dermatitis
