A member asked:
I have been diagnosed with rosacea, is it true that lysine & vitamin c can help? if it does what's the right dose ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sorry: Lysine will do nothing. Vitamin c will do nothing. Both of these are in most of your foods anyway. Don't be a sucker.Not every case is the same. Do you have eye symptoms? Pustules? Red face? See a dermatologist. Bring with you every pill, vitamin, herb, ; prescription used recently. You may benefit from cream (gel) or pill or both.
