Azelex 20% Cream: My Experience with Azelaic Acid for Acne and Rosacea
I've been using Azelex 20% Cream for about three months now to treat my rosacea, and I've seen some improvements in my skin. The cream is easy to apply, but the first few weeks were a bit rough with skin irritation. I stuck with it, and now I've noticed less redness and fewer breakouts. I'm wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences or if there are any tips for managing the initial irritation? I've also been curious about the potential long-term effects and if anyone has had any issues with prolonged use. Also, I found the allergic reactions listed to be serious — has anyone experienced any of these? Lastly, I want to know if anyone has reported side effects to the FDA and how that process went?
