Isotretinoin (5mg)

Overview Metteclear 5mg Capsule

Isotretinoin 5mg capsules, a retinoid (vitamin A-derived) medication, are prescribed for severe acne unresponsive to alternative therapies. Dosage and duration should strictly follow your physician's instructions. Administer with food, ideally at the same time daily for consistent absorption. Symptom improvement may take weeks; continued use is crucial for optimal results. Consult your doctor if no improvement is observed after several weeks. Dry skin, rashes, and elevated liver enzymes are common, usually mild and transient, but persistent or bothersome effects warrant medical attention. Increased sun sensitivity necessitates sun protection. Skin fragility necessitates avoiding waxing or laser treatments. Mouth, lip, and eye dryness may occur; hydration and moisturizers are recommended. This medication poses a risk of birth defects; pregnant or planning pregnancy necessitates immediate consultation with your doctor.
