The plant species Schkuhria pinnata (Lanm.) Kuntze ex Thell, “Canchalagua,” from the city of Ayacucho, was obtained at the Wholesale Market “La Parada,” district of La Victoria – Lima, and was subsequently taxonomically classified at the Natural History Museum of the Universidad de San Marcos. The sample was cleaned and dried at the Research Center of the Universidad Norbert Wiener, where the parts of the plant—stem, root, leaves, and flowers—were separated. Hydroalcoholic extracts of each part were prepared, and the phytoconstituents present were identified, such as flavonoids, reducing sugars, phenolic compounds, and carbohydrates. For the microbiological test, the Disk Diffusion method was used with blood agar medium and the Propionibacterium acnes strain (ATCC® 11827). Standard antibiotics Q.P.: Doxycycline, Levofloxacin, Azithromycin, and Penicillin were employed. Disks impregnated with 10 µL of the hydroalcoholic extracts were added and compared with the standard antibiotic disks on the plates, showing that the hydroalcoholic extract of the leaves presented the largest inhibition halo diameter.

Objective: This study aimed to determine the factors associated with adherence to isotretinoin treatment in patients with acne vulgaris at the Hospital de La Solidaridad in the Puente Piedra District, Lima, in 2025. Methodology: This was a basic study with an observational design, a quantitative approach, a correlational level, and a cross-sectional cut. A survey was conducted with 100 patients attending the Hospital de La Solidaridad in Puente Piedra in 2025, using two instruments. Results: A total of 62% of patients had severe acne, and 70% had suffered from it for less than a year. The most common adverse effects of isotretinoin were headaches (reported by 64% of patients) and lip dryness (reported by 63%). Although patients had good knowledge about the disease, more than 50% were non-adherent to the treatment. Additionally, 95% received pharmaceutical care, ensuring proper dispensing practices in compliance with Good Dispensing Practices (GDP). Conclusion: It was determined that adherence to isotretinoin treatment in patients with acne vulgaris at the Hospital de La Solidaridad in the Puente Piedra District was associated with various factors, including socioeconomic conditions, pharmacotherapy-related aspects, the pharmaceutical professional, and the disease itself. On the other hand, patient-related factors (such as knowledge) did not show a significant relationship with adherence during 2025.
