Overview Isotrite 20 Capsule

Containing vitamin A (a retinoid), Isotrite 20 Capsules are indicated for severe acne unresponsive to alternative therapies. Dosage and treatment duration should strictly follow your physician's instructions. Consistent daily ingestion with food is recommended to maintain regularity. While improvement may take time (several weeks), continued use is crucial for optimal results. Consult your doctor if no improvement is observed after this period. Dry skin, rashes, and elevated liver enzymes are common, usually transient side effects. Persistent or bothersome side effects warrant medical attention. Increased sun sensitivity and skin fragility are potential consequences; minimize sun exposure and avoid waxing or laser treatments. Expect potential dryness of the mouth, lips, and eyes; adequate hydration and moisturization are advised. Due to the risk of birth defects, pregnant women or those planning pregnancy must consult their doctor before using this medication.
