Today the eczema community is one step closer to having a new treatment option. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Zoryve cream (roflumilast 0.15%) from manufacturer Arcutis Biotherapeutics, for the treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis in adults and children ages 6 and older.
Zoryve is also available as a foam (0.3%) for the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis in patients 9 years of age and older. Zoryve foam (0.3%) was approved by the FDA in December 2023.
Zoryve is a once-daily topical, which can be used anywhere on the body for any duration. Zoryve is not a topical steroid. Zoryve inhibits the enzyme phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4), which is involved in the production of pro-inflammatory mediators and this action reduces inflammation in dermatological conditions.
It’s important to talk to your doctor about how atopic dermatitis or seborrheic dermatitis affects your skin and other aspects of your life. Together, you and your healthcare provider can determine if Zoryve is an appropriate treatment option.
