Abstract
Topical retinoids are the first line treatment for mild to moderate acne. Although the drugs of this group are very effective in the treatment of acne, their use often causes irritant dermatitis – xerosis, peeling and other unpleasant symptoms. These adverse events reduce adherence to the therapy and, consequently, the effectiveness of the treatment. However, as shown by foreign clinical experience and our own observations, the use of moisturizers in combination with topical retinoid therapy can reduce the risk of irritant dermatitis. Preference should be given to moisturizers, whose components not only maintain a high level of skin hydration, but also can enhance the effect of the main drug.
