Article Synopsis
  • Acne affects about 9.4% of the global population and significantly impacts quality of life, prompting a trial to test individualized homeopathic medicines (IHM) against placebo in treating acne vulgaris (AV).
  • The double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial included 126 AV patients, measuring outcomes like the Global Acne Grading System score at baseline and after three months to assess treatment efficacy.
  • While the IHM group showed better overall improvements compared to the placebo, these results were not statistically significant, indicating a non-significant trend in favor of homeopathic treatment without any reported adverse effects.
