Frequently Asked Questions
about Rosacea and Rosacea-Ltd

Why Rosacea-Ltd IV Works - Pharmaceutical Mechanism of Action. We at Bass & Boney Pharmaceuticals, Inc. are frequently asked about the sulfur content in Rosacea-Ltd IV and whether or not it's safe for people with allergies to sulfa. Sulfa and sulfur are so very different. The sulfur in Rosacea-Ltd IV is used only on the skin as it is a natural base mineral required in the body system, whereas sulfa is a synthetic material produced on an assembly line for the treatment of bacteria. As the oral sulfa antibiotic pill is swallowed, the effects are systemic or throughout the body, whereas the sulfur of less than 1% in the tan Rosacea-Ltd IV disk and less than 2% in the yellow Rosacea-Ltd IV disk and is applied topically. The result is that an allergy to sulfa does not mean one is allergic to sulfur. Check out the human body minerals needed for normal functioning with sulfur being 0.228 % or 150 grams at human body minerals (elements).

The amount of sulfur in Rosacea-Ltd IV is smaller than any other product on the market that contains sulfur. And unknown to most rosacea sufferers, sulfur is an essential element of the body that is needed for cell regeneration and it's the eighth most abundant mineral in the human body. The skin is the toughest organ of the body while the eye is the most fragile organ. The skin can easily accommodate, absorb and use this smaller amount of sulfur in improving the rosacea skin. We purposely limited the amount of sulfur in the disks to an amount that would be effective and beneficial without the side effect of being too irritating. As we all have found in treating rosacea, 'less is often more effective'. A light application is all that's necessary to reap maximum benefits.

What is Rosacea-Ltd and how can it benefit your skin? The answers to these and many more rosacea concerns can be found in this indexed overview of the Rosacea-Ltd Web site. It is possible to control and manage your rosacea. It is possible to face the world with the confidence gained from knowing you look your best. These highlights will give you a quick insight into how to correct and control your rosacea skin problems.

• Rosacea is a hereditary, chronic skin disorder which most often affects the face. Groups of tiny blood vessels under the skin of the face dilate, causing flushing (general facial redness), spidery veins, and/or blotchy red areas with small papules (inflammatory bumps). For more on the definition of rosacea and rosacea flushing, see the Flushing Types page and the Definition, Stages & Classification page.
• Rosacea is caused by an overly acidic body and skin. For more on the cause of rosacea, see the Rosacea's Cause or Etiology and Cure page. For lifestyle recommendations useful in preventing rosacea and improving your overall health, see the Lifestyle Changes page. We also have pictures of rosacea on a man and rosacea on a woman.
• Antibiotics, retinoids, Accutane, and steroids have been a mainstay of rosacea treatment. Rosacea sufferers have noticed that these prescribed treatments and various rosacea laser treatments have not worked as well as a rosacea skin care product; also these past treatments for rosacea may have caused additional damage to the sensitive rosacea skin. Oral and topical antibiotic rosacea treatments for adult acne rosacea can work for up to several months before the bacteria become immune to the antibiotic, causing the antibiotic to lose its effectiveness. Dermatologists continue to be baffled by rosacea due to a lack of patient history and experience, and treat rosacea like other skin disorders. The result is that the doctor becomes frustrated and the patient becomes impatient and migrates to another doctor. Oral antibiotic treatment actually causes more rosacea red symptoms. For the latest FDA findings on antibiotic resistance, see our Bacterial Resistance to Antibiotics page. For more information on the use and misuse of steroids for rosacea, see Steroids and Dermatology page, the list of steroids that should never be used for rosacea treatment, and the Dermatitis and Steroid-Induced Rosacea page.
• In the treatment of rosacea, one sometimes sees a rosacea-like eruption around the mouth area. Known as peri-oral dermatitis, peri-oral refers to the facial area around the mouth while dermatitis pertains to inflammation, redness or irritation of the skin. This condition may be wrongfully thought of as acne while others believe it to be a manifestation of their rosacea.
• Another skin condition that can accompany rosacea is eczema. Usually one of the first symptoms of eczema is intense itching; this itching can be very uncomfortable and individuals may tend to scratch the skin. The itchy feeling is an important symptom in eczema, because scratching and rubbing in response to itching worsen the skin inflammation characteristic of eczema.
• Lactic acid from food or too much exercise can be harmful. See our Lactic Acid page for more on how to avoid a buildup of lactic acid.
• Be sure to balance your nutrition even if you are reducing your calorie intake. Many people are particularly deficient in the beneficial polyunsaturated fats provided by seafood, such as Omega-3 DHA. We also have some dietary recommendations (the "rosacea diet") to help you reduce your acid intake.
• You should drink at least 8 eight-ounce glasses (2 liters) of alkaline or pH neutral water per day to help balance your body's pH and prevent rosacea flushing. Ten to twelve glasses (3 liters) per day is recommended. Water should be icy cold. The hypothalamus, the body's "thermostat", cannot properly regulate temperature (and prevent facial flushing) unless kept cool and supplied with adequate water. Water also hydrates the skin, preventing clogged pores. For information about increasing the pH of your water, making it even healthier to drink, see our drinking water page.
• Too much sunlight can be extremely harmful for your skin. Please see the Sun Rays page for more on how to protect yourself properly, as well as the list of drugs that increase sun sensitivity. It is also important to protect your eyes to prevent Ocular Rosacea.
• We at Bass & Boney, Inc. have admired the world renowned research scientist Dr. Sydney Brenner for years. And we have always from our start with Rosacea-Ltd used Dr. Brenner's premise of working "from the bedside to the bench" that he is encouraging other medical research scientists to do. Please read about Dr. Sydney Brenner hammering 'factory science' for using the same old thinking process instead of looking for a solution outside of the box. We also admire Thomas Edison's thoughts on Doctors of the Future.
• Red man syndrome, a reaction to the highly acidic antibiotic vancomycin, is further evidence that rosacea is caused by an acidic body. Read more about antibiotics and "red man syndrome".
• A recent confirmation of our research is a study by Dr. Richard Gallio (et al.) regarding the cause of rosacea.
