A regimen is described for providing early onset of action in the therapeutic treatment of rosacea including topically applying a pharmaceutical composition to the skin of a subject in need of said treatment. The pharmaceutical composition includes about 1% to about 10% benzoyl peroxide as the only active ingredient, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient. The pharmaceutical composition is applied once daily for a period of at least about 2, 4, 8 or 12 weeks. Based on early onset of action, a primary measure of success is at least about 9%, primary measure of success being defined as a 2-grade improvement in IGA of clear or almost clear; and a secondary measure of success is at least about 40%, secondary measure of success being defined as mean inflammatory lesion count percent reduction from baseline, after at least about 2 weeks of treatment.
A treatment regimen for providing early onset of action in the therapeutic treatment of rosacea, the regimen comprising topically applying to the skin of a subject in need of said treatment a pharmaceutical composition, the pharmaceutical composition comprising about 2.5% w/w to about 10% w/w benzoyl peroxide as an active ingredient, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient, wherein the benzoyl peroxide is the only active ingredient in said pharmaceutical composition, wherein said pharmaceutical composition is applied once daily for a period of at least about 2, 4, 8 or 12 weeks, wherein said pharmaceutical composition is a cream or an emulsion, wherein a primary measure of success in a group of subjects is at least about 9% to about 40%, and wherein the primary measure of success is defined as a 2-grade improvement in Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) and clear or almost clear, wherein the primary measure of success is at least about 9% after about 2 weeks,
A treatment regimen for providing early onset of action in the therapeutic treatment of rosacea, the regimen comprising topically applying to the skin of a subject in need of said treatment a pharmaceutical composition, the pharmaceutical composition comprising about 2.5% w/w to about 10% w/w benzoyl peroxide as an active ingredient, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient, wherein the benzoyl peroxide is the only active ingredient in said pharmaceutical composition, wherein said pharmaceutical composition is applied once daily for a period of at least about 2, 4, 8 or 12 weeks, wherein said pharmaceutical composition is a cream or an emulsion, wherein a secondary measure of success in a group of such subjects is at least about 40% to at least about 65%, and wherein the secondary measure of success is defined as mean inflammatory lesion count percent reduction from baseline, wherein the secondary measure of success is at least about 40% after at least about 2 weeks,
A treatment regimen for providing early onset of action in the therapeutic treatment of rosacea, the regimen comprising topically applying to the skin of a subject in need of said treatment a pharmaceutical composition, the pharmaceutical composition comprising about 2.5% w/w to about 10% w/w benzoyl peroxide as an active ingredient, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient, wherein the benzoyl peroxide is the only active ingredient in said pharmaceutical composition, wherein said pharmaceutical composition is a cream or an emulsion, wherein said pharmaceutical composition is applied once daily for a period of at least about 2, 4, 8 or 12 weeks, and wherein the absolute reduction in lesion count after about 2 weeks is at least twice the absolute reduction in lesion count after about 4 weeks of treatment,
