Azelaic acid monoethyl ester is a derivative of azelaic acid, commonly used in dermatology for its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. This ester form enhances its solubility and stability, making it useful in topical formulations for treating acne, rosacea, and hyperpigmentation. It works by reducing keratin production, which can prevent clogged pores, and by decreasing the growth of acne-causing bacteria. Research on azelaic acid monoethyl ester focuses on its efficacy, formulation improvements, and potential therapeutic applications.
