Answer (2)

The correct answer to the question is azelaic acid, which is a topical dicarboxylic acid used to treat rosacea and acne. Azelaic acid works by reducing inflammation and promoting cell turnover. Other options like mupirocin, finasteride, and adapalene serve different purposes and are not dicarboxylic acids. ;
