Eflornithine (DFMO; MDL71782; RMI71782; α-difluoromethylornithine) is a potent, specific, irreversible inhibitor of the
enzyme ornithine decarboxylase. Eflornithine is used as a medication for
the treatment of African trypanosomiasis and excessive facial hair
growth in women. Facial hirsutism is a cosmetic concern for women and
can lead to significant anxiety and lack of self-esteem. Eflornithine
cream is indicated for the treatment of facial hirsutism. However,
limited success rate and overall patient's satisfaction, even with a
long-term and high-frequency application, leave room for improvement.
