Acne Management with Dermocosmetics

The use of dermocosmetics, including 2-Oleamido-1,3-Octadecanediol, has been recommended for acne management, particularly in the MENA region. These products can enhance treatment adherence and efficacy, especially for mild cases. For more details, see Use of Dermocosmetics in Acne Management: A Middle East-North Africa Consensus.

Efficacy Compared to Benzoyl Peroxide

A study comparing a multitargeted dermocosmetic cream containing 2-Oleamido-1,3-Octadecanediol to benzoyl peroxide showed that the former was better tolerated and equally effective in treating mild-to-moderate acne. For further insights, refer to Efficacy of a multitargeted, salicylic acid-based dermocosmetic cream compared to benzoyl peroxide 5% in Acne vulgaris.
