Overview Ister 0.025% Cream

Tretinoin 0.025% Cream, a topical retinoid, effectively treats acne vulgaris manifesting as pimples or spots on the face, chest, or back. It also refines skin texture, minimizing the appearance of fine wrinkles. This cream regulates sebum production, ideally applied sparingly at night as directed by your physician. Treatment duration and dosage depend entirely on your individual condition. Always cleanse and dry the affected area before applying a thin layer. Strictly adhere to your doctor's instructions. Avoid application to broken skin and contact with eyes, nose, and mouth. Significant improvement may take several weeks; consistent use is crucial. If no improvement is seen after several weeks, seek further medical advice. Increasing dosage or frequency won't accelerate results and may worsen side effects. Common mild side effects include skin irritation, dryness, and redness, typically subsiding with continued use. Maintain adequate hydration and use a moisturizer to mitigate dryness, which may also affect the mouth, lips, and eyes. Report persistent or bothersome side effects to your doctor. Serious adverse reactions are uncommon. Increased sun sensitivity is possible; minimize sun exposure. Skin fragility may increase; avoid waxing or laser treatments during treatment. This medication is contraindicated for pregnant women or those planning pregnancy due to the risk of birth defects.
