Overview Signatret 20 Softgel Capsule

Isotretinoin 20mg softgels, a retinoid (vitamin A derivative), are prescribed for severe acne unresponsive to prior 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 seen after several weeks. Dry skin, rashes, and elevated liver enzymes are common, generally mild, and often resolve with continued use; however, report any persistent or bothersome side effects. Increased sun sensitivity necessitates sun avoidance; skin fragility may also occur, necessitating postponement of waxing or laser treatments. Dry mouth, lips, and eyes are possible; hydration and moisturizers are recommended. Due to the risk of birth defects, pregnant or planning-to-conceive individuals must consult their doctor before use.
