Another skin problem
Seminar Topic 4.2
An 18-year old college student, Amy, called for an
appointment because she has noticed several small lesions
on her face. She said that they are very itchy and she has
been scratching the area. Because she thought it was
dermatitis, she has been treating it with an
over-the-counter (OTC) moisturizer for dry, itchy skin.
The doctor diagnosed it as impetigo and prescribed an
ointment and cream for her use.
What patient education should you provide to Amy?
What is the cause of this skin disease?

prescription remedies for conditions such as psoriasis,
athlete’s foot, jock itch, and acne can influence patient
expectations and decision-making.
Why is there such a strong influence from advertising in
magazines, on TV and radio and computers?

Osteoarthritis, or degenerative joint disease, is the

marketed to aging baby boomers.
Discuss the current spate of products and related
advertising, including events that may result in
taking a drug off the market.
