Overview Synoret 10mg Capsule

Isotretinoin 10mg capsules, a retinoid (vitamin A-derived) medication, are prescribed for severe acne unresponsive to alternative treatments. Dosage and duration should strictly follow your physician's instructions. Administer with food, ideally at the same consistent time daily to ensure regularity. Significant improvement may take several weeks; continued use is crucial for optimal results. Consult your doctor if no improvement is observed after several weeks of treatment. Common side effects include dry skin, skin eruptions, and elevated liver enzymes; these are usually mild and transient, but persistent or bothersome symptoms warrant medical attention. Increased sun sensitivity is possible; minimize sun exposure. Skin fragility may also occur, necessitating avoidance of waxing or laser treatments. Dryness of the mouth, lips, and eyes may develop; hydration and moisturization are recommended. This medication carries a risk of birth defects; pregnant or planning pregnancy patients should consult their physician.
