Overview Isonac 20mg Capsule

Acitretin 20mg capsules, a retinoid (vitamin A-derived) medication, are indicated for severe acne unresponsive to alternative therapies. Dosage and duration should strictly adhere to your physician's instructions. Administer with food, ideally at the same time daily, to maintain consistent levels. Symptom improvement may take several weeks; continued regular use is crucial for optimal results. Consult your doctor if no improvement is observed after several weeks of treatment. 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 necessitates sun protection; skin fragility may also occur, necessitating avoidance of waxing and laser treatments. Dryness of the mouth, lips, and eyes is possible; hydration and moisturization are recommended. Due to the potential for birth defects, pregnant or planning-to-conceive individuals must consult their doctor before use.
