Ep 415 – The Rogue Pharmacist: Perioral Dermatitis

Perioral dermatitis can easily be confused with acne, rosacea, or general skin irritation, making accurate recognition especially important. In this episode of *The Rogue Pharmacist*, Ben Fuchs explains what perioral dermatitis is, why it is frequently misidentified, and which skin care habits or products may unintentionally make the condition worse.
