If you’ve ever taken an acne drug prescribed by a professional doctor or dermatologist, then I have something to share with you that one of our readers sent us. It’s from a graduate student who has set up a website that takes surveys on people who have taken various drugs to gather data about things like how it worked for them, side effects, symptoms and all that jazz. Here is the email I received, and it contains all the information you need if you have taken an acne drug and are interested in participating in this interesting study/information gathering experiment. I am a graduated student of Roosevelt Academy working on an internship project in conjunction with rateadrug.com to collect primary user data about side effects and benefits from commonly used treatments for Acne. The goal is to build a large, public access database of unbiased, anecdotal data about Acne treatments. We want to let both patients and practitioners know about how they can participate in or benefit from the project. Users can add their experiences with a treatment and learn more about how the treatment is affecting them by taking a short, confidential survey. They can also use this website to compare aggregate data for different Acne treatments- both conventional and alternative ( http://rateadrug.com/Acne-symptoms-feedback.aspx ) – and forward the results of their own surveys to their doctors or family members. Rateadrug is an independent data gathering and information website that does not accept funding or advertisement from drug companies. Would it be possible for you to make this information available to your viewers so they can help us collect important data on Acne treatments? Thank you in advance. I’d be happy to speak with you if you have any questions or comments. Yolanda Mabuto
