Rosacea Care Package

The Finacea Plus rosacea care system is formulated to treat mild to moderate rosacea. The package includes three items—the Finacea prescription gel, CeraVe moisturizing lotion, and CeraVe hydrating cleanser. Finacea is the first prescription gel approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of rosacea. It should not be used by patients who are hypersensitive to propylene glycol. CeraVe hydrating cleanser gently cleans rosacea-prone skin while restoring and enhancing the skin's protective barrier. CeraVe moisturizing lotion is formulated to help the skin hold and distribute moisture. Use of these three products together helps patients mange their rosacea more efficiently.
