Isotretinoin (5mg)
Description:
Tretiva 5mg Cap contains isotretinoin, a retinoid medication primarily used for the treatment of severe nodular acne that has not responded to other treatments, including antibiotics.
Isotretinoin works by reducing the production of sebum (an oily substance produced by the skin glands), decreasing inflammation, and preventing the formation of comedones (blackheads and whiteheads). It can also help to reduce the size of the oil glands. Tretiva capsules are taken orally, usually once or twice a day with food to enhance absorption. Treatment with isotretinoin is typically for a course of 15-20 weeks.
Due to its potential for serious side effects, including birth defects, it is prescribed and monitored closely by a dermatologist. Women of childbearing potential must use two effective forms of contraception before, during, and for a certain period after treatment. Other side effects can include dry skin, dry eyes, dry mouth, nosebleeds, muscle aches, and changes in liver function and lipid levels.
