Isotretinoin 20mg is a powerful oral medication primarily used to treat severe acne that hasn’t responded to other treatments. It belongs to the retinoid class of drugs, which are derived from vitamin A, and works by reducing the size and activity of the skin’s oil glands, decreasing oil production, and preventing clogged pores. Isotretinoin also has anti-inflammatory properties that help improve severe acne lesions. While it is highly effective, the medication can cause significant side effects, such as dry skin, lips, and eyes, and it requires close monitoring due to its potential to cause serious birth defects if taken during pregnancy.
