What Are the Challenges Associated with Topical Treatments?
One of the main challenges associated with topical treatments is the development of resistance. Overuse or misuse of topical antibiotics can lead to resistant strains of bacteria, making infections harder to treat. Additionally, patient compliance is often an issue, as topical treatments may require frequent application and proper technique to be effective. Another challenge is the potential for allergic reactions or skin irritation, which can complicate treatment and reduce adherence.
