Overview Tretcard 20mg Soft Gelatin Capsule

Isotretinoin 20mg softgel capsules, a retinoid (vitamin A-derived medication), are indicated for treating recalcitrant acne unresponsive to alternative therapies. Dosage and treatment duration should strictly adhere to your physician's instructions. Administer with food, ideally at a consistent time daily to ensure regularity. Symptom 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, such as xerosis, skin eruptions, and elevated liver enzymes, are generally mild and transient, though persistent or bothersome effects warrant medical attention. Increased sun sensitivity and skin fragility are possible; minimize sun exposure, avoid waxing/laser treatments, and use a moisturizer to counteract dryness of the skin, lips, and eyes. Hydration is important; increase water intake. This medication poses a teratogenic risk; pregnant individuals or those planning pregnancy should consult their doctor.
