<p>The method relates to the use of a photosensitizer selected from 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) and 5-ALA derivatives, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, in the manufacture of a medicament for use in treating a wound. Examples of wounds which may be treated in accordance with the invention include those resulting from non-physiological processes, e.g. from surgery or from physical injury, abrasions, lacerations, and wounds arising from a thermal injury (e.g. a burn or a wound arising from any cryo-based treatment). Ulcers, e.g. leg ulcers, venous ulcers and gastric ulcers, may also be successfully treated in accordance with the methods of the invention.</p> |
