Overview Glotret 20 Tablet

Retinoid medication, Glotret 20mg tablets (a vitamin A derivative), is indicated for treating recalcitrant acne unresponsive to alternative therapies. Dosage and treatment duration should strictly adhere to your physician's instructions. Administer with food, ideally at the same time daily for consistent absorption. While symptom improvement may take several weeks, consistent use is crucial for optimal results. Consult your doctor if no progress is observed after a few weeks. Common side effects, such as dry skin, rashes, and elevated liver enzymes, are usually mild and transient, but persistent or bothersome effects warrant medical attention. Increased sun sensitivity and skin fragility are potential side effects; minimize sun exposure, and avoid waxing or laser treatments. Expect potential dryness of the mouth, lips, and eyes; adequate hydration and moisturization are recommended. Due to the risk of birth defects, pregnant women or those planning pregnancy must consult their physician before using this medication.
