2024 AAD Acne Treatment Guidelines *ACPE-Accredited*

CorConsult Rx: Evidence-Based Medicine and Pharmacy

On this episode, we discuss the 2024 acne treatment guidelines that was published by the American Academy of Dermatology. This new set of guidelines was intended as an update to the AAD's 2016 acne guidelines. We review the use of benzoyl peroxide, topical retinoids, topical antibiotics, oral antibiotics, isotretinoin, and other common treatment options. We also discuss clascoterone, the topical androgen receptor inhibitor (first-in-class).
