Abstract

Pentoxifylline is methylxanthine derivative which is used in microcirculatory disorders as a vasoactive drug. Novel immunomodulatory properties of pentoxifylline have been reported including the down regulation of tumour necrosis factor-α synthesis and other inflammatory cytokines. Studies have shown that pentoxifylline might be efficacious in a wide spectrum of skin diseases. This article focuses on the use of pentoxifylline which is a safe and cheap drug in various dermatological disorders.
