- - The study aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety of a 10% zinc sulfate solution in treating melasma, a skin condition that causes discoloration.
- - Conducted with 28 patients over 2 months, results showed a significant improvement in melasma severity (almost 50% reduction) without major side effects, aside from mild stinging in some cases.
- - The findings suggest that topical zinc sulfate is a promising, affordable option for melasma treatment, with most patients maintaining their improvement even 3 months after stopping the treatment.
Background: Recurrent aphthous ulcerations (RAU) are the most common oral mucosal disease among the general population including in Iraq. There is no uniformly effective therapy for this disease.
Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of 5-percent lactic acid mouthwash in the treatment of patients with recurrent aphthous ulcerations.
Background: Many chemicals have been used in the skin peeling for melasma such as Jessner's solution and glycolic acid. Lactic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid that has not been used before in chemical peeling of melasma.
Objective: The purpose of the present work was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lactic acid in chemical peeling of melasma in comparison to Jessner's solution chemical peels.
