When treating rosacea and acne, dermatologists should pay close attention to the potential for adverse effects ranging from skin irritation to drug resistance, according to Dr. Joseph F. Fowler Jr.
Irritation is especially common in rosacea patients, and there can be significant adverse effects from systemic treatments of both rosacea and acne. Fortunately, newer formulations of both topical and systemic drugs have been created to reduce the adverse effects and increase the efficacy of these treatments, said Dr. Fowler of the University of Louisville (Ky.).
