Oracea® targets the pathophysiology of rosacea—inflammation
Only Oracea has been shown to isolate anti-inflammatory effects without exerting antimicrobial actions.2
With Oracea, the steady-state of doxycycline remains below the antimicrobial threshold, avoiding the complications associated with antimicrobial activity†3
- While the exact cause is unknown, chronic inflammation plays a primary role in rosacea4
- Tetracycline antibiotics exert anti-inflammatory activity, but are associated with dose-related side effects and an increased risk of bacterial resistance5
*Oracea is indicated for the treatment of only inflammatory lesions (papules and pustules) of rosacea in adult patients.
