Abstract in brief

This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness and safety of various treatments for Demodex mite infestations, which are linked to skin conditions like rosacea and bacterial folliculitis.
Common treatments such as metronidazole (both oral and topical), permethrin, crotamiton, benzoyl benzoate, and sulfur are effective in reducing Demodex mite density, but may cause mild to moderate skin irritation.
Currently, there is no established standard treatment because long-term efficacy data is lacking, highlighting the need for further research to determine the best approach.
