Guest guest Posted May 20, 2002 Report Share Posted May 20, 2002 No, unfortunately a cure is probably a LOONNNGGG way off. This is because almost nobody has shown any interest in trying to conduct any research relating to cea.. a large portion of the medical community is working under the misconception that cea is a trivial disorder that is easily treatable, so there is no interest there in doing further research. And major pharmaceutical companies don't want to spend any money for R&D because they don't think it affects enough people to be profitable. As long as this continues, there will be little, if any, advances in the study of cea. (The notable exception to this is the 3-4 research studies sponsored by the NRS each year) It seems to me our best hopes are the anti-flushing pill the cea-LTD company is hoping to come out with 5 years down the road, and Nitric Oxide inhibitors (which Dr. Lerner was nice enough to tell me today, he still thinks Nitric Oxide plays a part in cea, and that NOIs will probably be effective in treating cea.. its just a question of how effective) Cure? > Does anyone know if a cure will happen anytime soon for cea???? > > > > -- > Please read the list highlights before posting to the whole group (http://rosacea.ii.net/toc.html).
