Overview Olea 20mg Soft Gelatin Capsule

Retinoid therapy, specifically the 20mg Olea soft gelatin capsule (a vitamin A derivative), targets severe acne unresponsive to prior treatments. Dosage and duration should strictly follow your physician's instructions; consistent daily intake with food is recommended. While symptom improvement may take several weeks, continued use is crucial for optimal results. Consult your doctor if no improvement is observed after this period. Common, generally transient side effects include dry skin, rash, and elevated liver enzymes. Persistent or bothersome side effects warrant medical attention. Increased sun sensitivity and skin fragility necessitate sun avoidance and the postponement of procedures like 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.
