Effect of topical treatment with urea in ichthyosis, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and other skin conditions—a systematic review
According to the in-depth review of the research articles, the application of urea has a tremendous effect on different skin diseases. Still, its role as monotherapy is overlooked due to the presence of more susceptible alternate products that need to be addressed. However, in the future, the evaluation of the effects of treatment containing urea with antibiotics on skin diseases would be more beneficial for practical knowledge.
