Comparison of Different Concentrations of Carbamide as Moisturizers in Ichthyosis Vulgaris
Comparison of Different Concentrations of Carbamide as Moisturizers in Ichthyosis Vulgaris
A randomized double blinded clinical trial will be conducted comparing the effect of two
 simple basic moisturizers only different in the concentration of carbamide (urea). The
 concentrations of carbamide will be tested are 0 and 7.5, respectively. The study will be
 conducted as a split-body-study and will contain two arms randomized to comparing 0 and 7.5 %
 carbamide, respectively. Approximately 20 patients with at least clinically verified
 Ichthyosis Vulgaris will be enrolled to each study arm. The effect of the moisturizers will
 be assessed by clinical examination (score), patients assesment of effect and measurement of
 transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and other skin parameters.
Inclusion Criteria:
