Emerging therapies in rosacea

Alison Layton et al. J Am Acad Dermatol. 2013 Dec.

Abstract

Rosacea is a common skin disorder with multiple symptoms. The emergence of research that furthers understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms has created new targets for disease treatment. Specifically, there is a need for new treatments that address the various erythematic symptoms associated with rosacea. Systemic and topical therapies have both yielded positive results in treating rosacea with various medications. Subantimicrobial-dose doxycycline is one such promising treatment. Development of novel products in the near future should help achieve more satisfactory outcomes for patients.

Keywords: SDD; carvedilol; ivermectin; medical therapy; permethrin; rosacea; subantimicrobial dose doxycycline; subantimicrobial-dose doxycycline.
