Abstract
Veganism is a practice that promotes abstinence from all animal-derived products or foods. While veganism commonly refers to adopting a vegan diet, the term "veganism" also encompasses broader lifestyle practices. As veganism grows in popularity, patients often turn to their der-matologists for guidance regarding the identification of vegan ingredients in personal care and hair care products.1 Additionally, several over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription medications recommended in the management of dermatologic conditions are often questioned about their applicability to veganism. We discuss the relevance of vegan diets to dermatologic clinical practice, address common questions relevant to patients, and offer guidance on how to identify vegan products.
