Retinoid-based Accutane 20mg softgels treat severe acne unresponsive to alternative therapies. Dosage and duration should strictly follow your physician's instructions.

Consult your doctor if no progress is seen after several weeks. Dry skin, rashes, and elevated liver enzymes are common, usually transient side effects. Report persistent or bothersome symptoms.
