Acne medications and cost of care

April 27th, 2006

A recent study in Cutis magazine took a look at the overall costs of treating acne in realtionship to health status. The study found that the costs of prescription medications did not seem to be a factor in raising the annual costs of treating acne.

In fact, the study showed that overall healthcare status was improved in those who more frequently refilled their medications. This again stresses the importance of compliance when treating acne. Those that followed their treatment routines had much better results and overall better health status.

So, as we have stated before, compliance is critical in acne treatment. If you use your medications, they will work!
