Drugs for facial seborrheic dermatitis

Drugs for the treatment of facial seborrheic dermatitis include calcium-modulated phosphatase inhibitors, glucocorticosteroids, and itch-relieving sedatives, and so on, which usually need to be selected according to the patient’s condition. 1. Calcium-modulated phosphatase inhibitors: such as tacrolimus ointment, pimecrolimus cream, etc. They are mainly used for those who are in moderate-to-severe condition or those who are ineffective in weak glucocorticoid treatment. 2. Glucocorticosteroids: such as mometasone furoate, hydrocortisone, etc. Facial glucocorticosteroids should be avoided for too long a time, and the specific use of medication needs to follow the doctor’s instructions. 3. Antipruritic sedatives: such as cetirizine, loratadine and other antihistamines, can relieve the symptoms of facial itching. It is recommended that patients go to a regular hospital dermatology consultation, under the guidance of the doctor, choose the appropriate drugs, treatment, not blindly self-medication, so as not to delay the condition.
