Photoprotective Effects of the Combination of Extracts of Rosmarinus Officinalis and Citrus Paradisi (Golite OSP) in a Population from South India: A Case Series
Journal Title: Journal of Dermatology Research - Year 2025, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Background: The benefits of oral sunscreens are fewer skin reactions and systemic protection compared to topical application. The current case series evaluates the performance of oral sunscreen protection, Golite-OSP, in a South Indian population. Case Presentation: The current study included 11 patients with hyperpigmentation between 20 to 70 years of age. All patients were prescribed one capsule of Golite OSP daily (100 mg/day) for one month, alongside a moisturizer. Four participants (36.4%) exhibited maximum hyperpigmentation, two (18.2%) had severe hyperpigmentation and five (45.5%) showed medium hyperpigmentation. All patients experienced an improvement in their condition. None faced adverse effects or discontinued the medication. Conclusion: Golite-OSP is a promising treatment for hyperpigmentation in high-UV areas like South India. It offers efficacy in reducing pigmentation and a favourable safety profile.
