Acta Clin Croat. 2015 Mar;54(1):99-102 Authors: Rezaković S, Mokos ZB, Paštar Z Abstract Rosacea is a common chronic inflammatory cutaneous disease of unknown etiology, characterized by remissions and exacerbations, presenting with centrofacial erythema and telangiectasias. It affects mainly adults around the age of 30 years and classically predominates in females. The pathophysiology of rosacea has not yet been fully understood. Risk factors are positive family history, very light skin phototype, sun exposure and consumption of spicy food or alcohol. Recently, there has been some evidence that some drugs or vitamins could be potential factors that can aggravate rosacea or induce rosacea-like symptoms. In this context, we present a 53-year-old female developing rosacea-like dermatitis due to a fixed combination of isoniazid and pyridoxine, which she was receiving along with rifampicin for the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis.PMID: 26058251 [PubMed - in process] http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26058251?dopt=Abstract = URL to article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
