Description

The Derms on Drugs are back at it, answering the burning derm questions you didn't even know you had. Join us this week as we dive into more 'outside the box' therapies that you can use next week in the office. -Is low dose naltrexone a lifeline in difficult dermatoses or a false hope?-There's been some chatter around metformin for hidradenitis suppurativa. Is it hype or hope? -Diet and chronic spontaneous urticaria - Patients always ask and while we know it isn't food allergy, new data says that diet does play a role and gives us a simple intervention that's worth trying. -Everybody hates warts and we're always looking for pain free treatment options - could a heating pad and hydrogen peroxide be the answer? -Can we knock out psoriasis long term with a few months of high dose IL-23 inhibition?-We love tranexamic acid for melasma, but does oral or topical work better? -Once a vitiligo patient gets better, can you stop the Opzelura? -Fact or Fiction: Compared to PLEVA, PLC lasts longer and happens in adults more than kids?
