Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Rosacea Score on the Visual Analog Scale
Time Frame: Baseline, Weeks 2, 6, and 12
VAS = visual analog scale, 10 cm scale in which 0 = no rosacea, 10 = worst rosacea imaginable
Baseline, Weeks 2, 6, and 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Rosacea-Specific Quality of Life Index
Time Frame: Baseline, Weeks 2, 6, and 12
ROSACEA-SPECIFIC QUALITY OF LIFE INDEX©: average of scores to 22 questions on a 5 point scale (1 = never, 5 = all the time)
Baseline, Weeks 2, 6, and 12
Patient Global Assessment (PGA) of Rosacea Scores
Time Frame: Baseline, Weeks 2, 6, and 12
Patient Global Assessment (PGA) of Rosacea: 0 = clear, no signs or symptoms present; 1 = Near clear, 1 or 2 papules; 2 = mild, some (3 to 10) papules/pustules; 3 = moderate, moderate (11 to 19) number of papules and pustules; 4 = severe, numerous (≥ 20) papules/pustules; nodules
Baseline, Weeks 2, 6, and 12
Patient Satisfaction Question
Time Frame: Week 2, 6, and 12
