Overview Tretin-Iso 10 Capsule

Iso-Tretinoin 10mg capsules are retinoids (vitamin A derivatives) indicated for treating recalcitrant acne unresponsive to alternative therapies. Dosage and duration should strictly adhere to your physician's instructions. Administer with food, ideally at the same time daily, to ensure consistent medication levels. Significant improvement may take several weeks; continued regular use is crucial for optimal results. Consult your doctor if no improvement is observed after this period. Dry skin, rashes, and elevated liver enzymes are common, generally mild, and often resolve with continued use; however, persistent or bothersome side effects warrant medical attention. Increased sun sensitivity necessitates sun protection. Skin fragility may occur, precluding waxing or laser treatments during therapy. Dryness of the mouth, lips, and eyes is possible; hydration and moisturization are recommended. This medication carries a risk of birth defects; pregnant or planning pregnancy individuals must consult their doctor.
