Business Description
Accutane (isotretinoin) is a powerful medication used to treat severe acne, but it comes with potential side effects. Common side effects include dry skin, chapped lips, dry eyes, and nosebleeds. More serious side effects can include liver damage, increased cholesterol levels, and inflammatory bowel disease. It can also cause severe birth defects if taken during pregnancy, so strict contraceptive measures are required for women of childbearing age. Psychological side effects, such as depression and suicidal thoughts, have also been reported. Regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is essential to manage and mitigate these risks effectively.
