Since common skin disorders are manageable through self-care, community pharmacists are highly accessible source of professional services and advice. Although pharmacists are resourceful in managing skin disorders, they remain largely underutilized in handling these conditions. Prevention of common skin disorders can be achieved through collaborative efforts between physicians, nurses, and pharmacists, where the pharmacists can implement pharmaceutical care plans and manage drug-related problems for long-term skin conditions. This chapter discusses the pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatment of some common skin conditions (acne, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and fungal infections) and the potential role of pharmacists in their management. © 2019 Elsevier Inc.
