I have Type 1 (redness only) Rosacea on my cheeks and have had it for nearly 2 years.
Even when I've cut out bad food my rosacea and blushing is still pretty bad.
I've tried azelaic acid and Metronidazole but neither helped. I was prescribed Brimonidine which only made it worse, as you'll find a lot of people saying.
I am now on Moxonidine which works well for a while but has side effects of being very drowsy and wears off quickly. Anybody have any fixes/ way to reduce symptoms?
Thanks
