Rosacea Triggers - Getting More Specific


If you have read through our other pages on which rosacea triggers cause flare-ups, you are familiar with the general trigger factors.  But in the following tables, we are going to break down those general rosacea trigger categories into more defined items that are known causals of rosacea flare-ups.  These will be sorted into the following categories: beverages, foods, medications and environmental factors. 

These specific items were derived from patient feedback (Source: Dr. Jonathan Wilkin) and provided here to help you in the process of identifying your own rosacea triggers.   Note: Each rosacea sufferer may experience their own unique set of triggers.  So, most likely, not all of the below items will apply to your condition.
