Isotretinoin (20mg)
Active composition
Isotretinoin modulates gene expression in skin cells, reducing oil production and preventing clogged pores.
Medical applications
Finetret Soft Gelatin Capsule contains Isotretinoin 20mg, a potent retinoid primarily used for the treatment of severe recalcitrant nodular acne that has not responded to conventional therapies such as antibiotics. Isotretinoin works by reducing sebaceous gland size and sebum production, inhibiting the growth of acne-causing bacteria, and promoting the normalization of skin cell turnover, thereby preventing the formation of new acne lesions. This medication is typically prescribed under strict medical supervision due to its significant side effect profile, including teratogenicity, which necessitates effective contraception in women of childbearing potential. Patients may also experience dryness of the skin and mucous membranes, elevated liver enzymes, and changes in lipid levels, requiring regular monitoring during treatment. Finetret Soft Gelatin Capsule should be taken exactly as directed by a healthcare professional, usually with food to enhance absorption. It is contraindicated in pregnancy and should be used cautiously in patients with liver or lipid disorders. Due to its powerful effects and potential risks, patient education and adherence to prescribed guidelines are essential to achieve optimal outcomes and minimize adverse effects.
