Treatments with this stuff once a month on someone with recurrents flares of seborrheic dermatitis (especially the face) is rough! Goggles can protect the eye areas. Can something be done to cut down on the skin irritation? I have been thinking of switching to compressed air instead of oxygen and using a coat of something on the facial areas (zinc oxide, A & D with vaseline, etc.) I'm reluctant to mix grease and oxygen together.....Do you or anyone else have any ideas? I don't want to decrease or alter the efficicacy of the preventative effects that pentadamine would be giving. Locally 4 or 5 patients are placed in the same room for simultaneous pentadamine therapy, (we have quite a few folks that need treatment) and the air can get thick.
