I agree, Elena, though remember that there are also solid studies supporting the claims of topical antibiotics, and they are only recommended for mild rosacea. Conventional medicine has lots of hype, but I'm familiar with it so I can usually separate out the truth from the hype for me and my patients. But with alternative medical therapies I can't find the studies, the guidelines, the consumer protections, etc like I do for conventional medicine. This is important: to the extent some here hold these treatments in faith, I sincerely respect that. I'm honestly not interested in challenging anyone's belief system. If there are no answers it doesn't mean it's not true, it just means there are no answers. Marjorie Marjorie Lazoff, MD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
