Abstract(s)
A acne é uma patologia de alta incidência que pode impactar negativamente os pacientes de maneira significativa. A demora na procura de apoio médico para o tratamento pode levar ao desenvolvimento de cicatrizes tanto a nível cutâneo como a nível psicossocial. O tipo de tratamento depende da gravidade da condição e pode envolver diferentes medicamentos tópicos e sistémicos, com o objetivo de diminuir a produção de sebo, prevenir a formação de cravos, reduzir a inflamação, controlar a quantidade de bactérias e normalizar o processo de queratinização da pele. Além do tratamento farmacológico, o tratamento da acne envolve mudanças de hábitos diários como higienização adequada da pele, hidratação, uso de proteção solar, prevenção de danos cutâneos e aplicação de cosméticos tópicos. Destaca-se que, apesar das constantes evoluções, é preciso reforçar o papel do farmacêutico como um profissional apto e capacitado a complementar o tratamento instituído pelo médico, bem como o seu papel individual no tratamento da acne leve. Este trabalho teve como objetivo realizar uma revisão da literatura sobre a acne enfatizando os diferentes tipos de tratamentos disponíveis, bem como uma análise sobre o papel do farmacêutico no apoio ao utente com esta patologia.
Acne is a highly prevalent condition that can significantly impact patients in various ways. Delayed medical intervention may lead to the development of scars, both at the skin level and in terms of psychosocial consequences. The type of treatment depends on the severity of the condition and may involve diferente topical and systemic medications, with the aim of reducing sebum production, preventing the formation of blackheads, reducing inflammation, controlling the amount of bacteria and normalizing the keratinization process of the skin. In addition to pharmacological treatment, acne management involves lifestyle changes, such as proper skin hygiene, hydration, sun protection, prevention of skin damage, and the application of topical cosmetics. It is important to emphasize that despite ongoing advances, the role of the pharmacist should be reinforced as a professional capable and qualified to complement the treatment prescribed by the physician, as well as their individual role in the management of mild acne. This work aims to provide a literature review on acne, highlighting the different treatment options available, as well as an analysis of the pharmacist's role in supporting patients with this condition.
