Top Medical Research Studies

We explored the effectiveness of Rutin Forte, a treatment that includes long-acting vitamin C along with zinc and selenium, in managing rosacea, particularly in its erythematous stage. Our study included 30 patients—20 women and 10 men, aged 25 to 50—who were divided into two groups. One group received standard treatments like antibiotics and topical therapies, while the other group received the same treatments along with Rutin Forte for 2 to 3 months.

Over a 12-month observation period, we observed significant improvements in the group that received Rutin Forte. This group showed a notable reduction in erythema, the redness associated with rosacea, and intriguingly, there were no relapses of the condition. Conversely, the standard treatment group experienced recurrences of rosacea by the third month of follow-up, and their reduction in erythema was less pronounced.

This indicates that Rutin Forte, likely due to the vitamin C it contains, might play a beneficial role in treating and preventing rosacea symptoms, particularly in stubborn cases. Overall, our findings suggest that incorporating vitamin C into rosacea treatment can be quite effective.

Complexity of persistent rosacea treatment
We examined a unique case of severe rosacea that did not respond to traditional treatments. The study involved a 36-year-old man who experienced persistent facial and neck dermatitis despite various therapies. As part of his treatment, he received vitamin C in the form of 500 mg of ascorbic acid daily, alongside other medications aimed at addressing his condition.

Although this case included vitamin C, it’s essential to recognize that it was not the sole treatment. The patient also underwent immunosuppressive therapy and received other supplements. The results indicated that multiple factors contributed to his skin issues, highlighting the complex nature of rosacea.

While we can acknowledge the potential benefits of vitamin C, this study does not provide definitive evidence of its effectiveness specifically for rosacea. Instead, it underscores the importance of a holistic approach to managing recalcitrant skin conditions like rosacea, considering nutritional status and other underlying factors.

Visible skin improvement
Assistant for rosacea working from within, I accepted it on the recommendation of a cosmetologist, alongside bioflavonoids and Omega 3. For over a year now, I've observed a change in my skin's condition and quality, noticeable after 3-4 months of consistent use. I've reordered and highly recommend this product! Additionally, I experienced very few colds during the two autumn-winter periods. Wishing good health to all!

Improves rosacea condition
The Ester-C vitamin C form is the most expensive and safest due to its neutral pH, as well as the best available option. Though Solgar offers budget-friendly alternatives for Vitamin C, I opted for this specific form because of its bioavailability. I highly advise pairing Ester-C with a routine, significantly enhancing the condition of rosacea and reducing the visibility of blood vessels.

Visible effects noticed
All vitamin C is excellent, and my view is independent of the brand. Solgar has a solid reputation, which reassures me. I take 1000mg of vitamin C daily for my skin, blood vessels, and immunity. With skin prone to rosacea, I can confirm that consistent vitamin C intake results in noticeable benefits.
