Abstract
Metronidazole cream 1% was applied externally for the treatment of rosacea during 2 months in 14 women and 6 men. Two patients failed to come for control examination. Out of 18 patients who completed the treatment in 5 the lesions disappeared completely and were not returning during 3 months of follow-up, in 11 cases an improvement was achieved, in 1 case no improvement occurred, and in 1 case worsening was noted. These results suggest that the cream with metronidazole is an effective treatment for rosacea.
