Prognosis

EM is usually a mild, self-limited disease, with the lesions healing within 2 to 3 weeks without scarring.[2][45]​​ Recurrences are not generally frequent or life-threatening. However, suppressive therapy should be offered for prevention. Twice-daily dosing may maintain a better steady state of drug, but has poorer compliance in suppressive therapy.
