Description Isotretinoin is a vitamin A derivative that belongs to the class of medications called retinoids. Retinoids are typically used to treat skin problems. Isotretinoin is used to treat severe types of acne, such as nodular or inflammatory acne, where other medications with less potential for severe side effects have failed to help. It may also be used to treat acne conglobata and recalcitrant acne. Isotretinoin helps to reduce sebum production, which is often associated with bacteria that contributes to acne. In many cases, it can produce remission of the acne condition. The usual starting daily dose is 0.5 mg per kilogram of body weight taken daily for a period of 2 to 4 weeks. Based on body weight, severity of acne, and your response to the medication, your doctor will then adjust your dose. Isotretinoin should be taken as a single dose or in 2 divided doses during the day. Your acne may get worse temporarily, before it gets better. Your doctor will adjust your daily dose after the initial treatment depending on your response to the medication. The first signs of healing usually occur after 2 to 3 weeks of treatment, however, it may take 1 or 2 months before you see beneficial effects. The complete course of treatment usually lasts 12 to 16 weeks. Most people with severe acne notice a marked improvement after 1 or 2 courses of treatment. You may continue to see even more improvement in your acne condition for several months after you have stopped taking the medication.
