Accutane 20mg is a medication containing isotretinoin, a powerful retinoid used primarily for the treatment of severe nodular acne. Let’s delve into the details:

  1. Purpose and Mechanism:
    • Accutane is derived from vitamin A and works by reducing the production of oil (sebum) by the sebaceous glands in the skin.
    • It accelerates skin cell turnover, helping to prevent clogged pores and inflammation associated with acne.
  2. Indications:
    • Severe Nodular Acne: Accutane is specifically prescribed for severe, cystic, or nodular acne that has not responded to other treatments, including antibiotics.
    • It is not typically used for mild or moderate acne.
  3. Dosage and Administration:
    • The recommended dosage range for Accutane is 0.5 to 1 mg/kg/day.
    • It is administered orally in two divided doses with food.
    • Treatment duration usually spans 15 to 20 weeks.
  4. Precautions and Warnings:
    • Birth Defects: Accutane can cause severe birth defects if taken during pregnancy. It is crucial to avoid pregnancy while on this medication.
    • iPLEDGE Program: Accutane is available only through the iPLEDGE program, which ensures strict monitoring and compliance.
    • Contraception: Women of childbearing potential must use two forms of birth control while taking Accutane.
    • Avoid Vitamin A Supplements: Refrain from taking vitamin supplements containing vitamin A during Accutane treatment.
    • Blood Donation: Do not donate blood while on Accutane and for at least 30 days after discontinuation.
  5. Side Effects:
    • Common side effects include dry skin, chapped lips, and mild joint pain.
    • Rare but serious side effects may involve depression, liver abnormalities, and inflammatory bowel disease.
  6. Monitoring:
    • Regular follow-up visits with a healthcare provider are essential.
    • Blood tests monitor liver function, lipid levels, and other potential side effects.
