First seen Feb 20, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tests whether creams containing imipramine or amitriptyline (medicines usually used for depression) can reduce redness caused by sunlight in people with rosacea. About 48 adults with rosacea will apply the cream and then be exposed to a small amount of UV light to see if the redness is less than without the cream. The goal is to find a new way to ease a common rosacea trigger.
