To quantitatively synthesize the benefits and harms of Oxymetazoline cream 1% in real-world clinical management of treatment response and adverse events.METHODS:
The clinical researches before June 1, 2022 published on online databases including PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and Cochrane Library were meta-analyzed.RESULTS:
A total of 2298 participants were included, and the improvement rate of two-grade Clinician Erythema Assessment score (CEA) and Subject Self-Assessment for rosacea facial redness score (SSA) in Oxymetazoline group was 38% (95%CI 28-48) and 25% (95%CI 22-27), respectively, at the 4th week of the dosing. The comprehensive rate of treatment-related TEAEs in Oxymetazoline group was 7% (95%CI 5-8). The rate of stinging/burning was 15% (95%CI 10-19), pruritus was 15% (95%CI 9-22), dryness was 23% (95%CI 18-28), and scaling was 17% (95%CI 12-22) in analysis of dermal tolerability. And topical Oxymetazoline cream 1.0% presented a very low rebound rate of erythema (1%, 95%CI 0-2).CONCLUSIONS:
