Overview Treto 20mg Tablet

Isotretinoin 20mg tablets, a retinoid (vitamin A-derived medication), are prescribed for severe 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 for consistent absorption. Significant improvement may take weeks; continued regular 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, typically resolving with continued use, but report any persistent or bothersome side effects. Increased sun sensitivity necessitates sun protection; your skin may also become more delicate. Avoid waxing or laser treatments. Dryness of the mouth, lips, and eyes is possible; increase water intake and use moisturizers. This medication poses a risk of birth defects; pregnant or planning pregnancy requires immediate physician consultation.
