How best to treat acne
Acne vulgaris is a common condition that affects many adolescents
and adults at some time. On page 475 Webster gives an overview of
the pathogenesis, assessment, and treatment options for the condition.
Most effective acne regimens, he says, treat inflammatory and comedonal
acne lesions with a combination of antibacterial and retinoid
drugs. Poyner and Cunliffe (p 478) write an accompanying commentary that gives a UK primary care perspective on treating the
condition.
