Acne is the most common dermatological disorder. An impaired barrier function in acne vulgaris has been reported, as well as decreased amounts of epidermal ceramides. Also, many of the systemic and topical medications prescribed for the treatment of acne exacerbate these skin barrier disruptions and can lead to irritation and dry skin conditions.
This discussion will explore the importance of maximizing adjunctive skincare, such as over-the-counter products for managing acne and avoiding adverse effects.

We will discuss the barrier maturation and function of babies skin, simple but effective care, as well as potential transcutaneous toxicities to avoid.

The COVID 19 pandemic has locked down countries and stressed hospital systems worldwide. Patients who are admitted to the hospital, especially those with respiratory complications, are frequently placed on empirical antibiotics in part due to the fear of aerosolization of the virus, despite limited data showing low rates of bacterial and fungal infections. When patients get sicker, antibiotics are often empirically escalated, creating an inherent dilemma for the hospital’s Antimicrobial Stewardship program (ASP). The additional use of antibiotics, especially in ICU patients, can potentially lead to drug toxicities, allergies, prolonged hospital stays, increased bacterial resistance and associated complications such as C. difficile infection (CDI). CDI, with 428,000 cases per year with 5.2% attributable mortality, costs insurers approximately $5 billion dollars (US) in excess medical costs and is considered an urgent global threat by the WHO and CDC. Hospital ASP teams have begun to lower these rates with more restrictive antibiotic use protocols. The use of specific strains of probiotics has been shown to effectively reduce antibiotic-associated diarrhea and CDI in several randomized controlled trials (RCTs), but not all probiotic strains or mixtures are effective. An innovative strategy which involves administering specific probiotics to every inpatient who receives an antibiotic and continuing the probiotic for the duration of the antibiotic course or until discharge is proposed as an essential element of an effective CDI prevention bundle.
