Combination therapy addressing multiple pathogenic factors should be used to achieve optimal outcomes in treating acne. The following study demonstrated both safety and efficacy of fixed-dose clindamycin phosphate 1.2%/benzoyl peroxide 2.5% in the morning with micronized tretinoin 0.05% gel in the evening. Both products were applied to the skin following the use of a ceramide containing moisturizing lotion.

Aims: Skin disorders occur more frequently with sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter type 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors than with other antidiabetic drugs. We conducted basic research using ipragliflozin, with the aim of identifying new measures to prevent skin disorders caused by SGLT2 inhibitors.

Methods: db/db type 2 diabetes model mice were orally administered ipragliflozin (10 mg/kg or 30 mg/kg) once a day for 28 days and skin function genes were analysed by real-time RT-PCR or Western blotting.
