Overview Tretosil 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 follow your physician's instructions. Administer with food, ideally at the same time daily for consistent absorption. Significant improvement may take weeks; continued use is crucial for optimal results. Consult your doctor if no improvement is observed after several weeks. Dry skin, rashes, and elevated liver enzymes are common, usually transient side effects. Persistent or bothersome side effects warrant medical attention. Increased sun sensitivity necessitates sun protection; skin fragility may also occur, necessitating avoidance of waxing or laser treatments. Mouth, lip, and eye dryness are possible; hydration and moisturization are recommended. This medication poses a risk of birth defects; pregnant or planning pregnancy patients must consult their doctor.
