Overview Tretex 20 Soft Gelatin Capsule

Isotretinoin 20mg softgels, a retinoid (vitamin A derivative), 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, to ensure consistent intake. Significant improvement may take weeks; continued regular use is crucial. Consult your doctor if no progress is observed after several weeks. Dry skin, rash, and elevated liver enzymes are common, usually transient side effects. Persistent or bothersome symptoms warrant medical attention. Increased sun sensitivity and skin fragility are potential side effects; minimize sun exposure and avoid waxing or laser treatments. Expect potential dryness of the mouth, lips, and eyes; hydration and moisturizers are recommended. This medication poses a risk of birth defects; pregnant or planning pregnancy necessitates immediate consultation with your doctor.
