Official title
Topical Eflornithine Hydrochloride for Pseudofolliculitis Barbae: A Randomized, Double-blinded, Placebo-controlled Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
To study the efficacy of topical eflornithine for pseudofolliculitis barbae from a quality of life standpoint and with objective physician-measured lesion counts. Our hypothesis is that the hair growth retardation that occurs with eflornithine will perhaps reduce the frequency over time that service members need to shave which could improve the formation of PFB lesions.
