Accutane detailed information:
Accutane is a powerful drug used in
the treatment of acne. Four to five months of
isotretinoin treatment usually leads to clearing of
acne for one year or more after the medicine is
stopped. Most other acne-controlling medicines are
antibacterial agents, which are effective only if
the medicine is used daily.Isotretinoin has
significant side effects: (percentages are the ratio
of people who received the side-effect)
Chapped lips 90% , dry skin and itching 80% - the use of
daily alpha hydroxacids will help prevent this side effect.
Dryness of nose, mild nosebleed 80%, Irritation of the
eyelids and eyes 40% - Vitamin E 400 IU each day may lessen
this side effect. Joint and muscle pains 15%, Temporary hair
thinning 10%, Rash 7%, Intestinal symptoms 5%, Urinary
symptoms 5%, Headache 5%, Increased sensitivity to sunburn
5%, Decreased night vision <1%, Depression, thoughts of
suicide <1%
Isotretinoin may increase the level of blood fats, sometimes
to risky levels. Occasionally it may affect the liver.
That's why regular blood tests are necessary when you are
taking isotretinoin; these tests must be done when you have
fasted for 12 hours (no breakfast), so that the blood fat
determinations are reliable. A baseline blood chemistry test
is established before patients start isotretinoin.
The most damaging side effect of isotretinoin is serious
birth defects if taken during pregnancy.
It is critically important for women not to take
isotretinoin while pregnant, and not to become pregnant
while taking it. Women who are, or expect to be, sexually
active while taking isotretinoin must use an effective
method of birth control. This usually means oral
contraceptive pills and one other additional method of birth
control such as a condoms for the male partner. A woman who
does get pregnant while on isotretinoin must be prepared to
have an abortion and must state this in writing before many
hysicians will prescribe isotretinoin for her.Isotretinoin
may cause birth defects as long as two months after it is
stopped. After that time, it's safe to become pregnant.
Because the birth defects caused by isotretinoin are so
serious, it's important not to share the pills with
others.We don't know whether isotretinoin taken by men can
cause birth defects, so it's best not to get a woman
pregnant while taking isotretinoin. If she is not using
birth control, the man should use a condom.There are a few
reports of patients having decreased night vision after
using Accutane. One patient still had problems six months
after the drug was stopped. If you experience trouble with
your vision while on Accutane, call the office right away.
Some people develop headaches while on Accutane. If you
develop a persistent headache while on Accutane, call your
physician right away. A persistent headache, which will not
go away while on Accutane, can be dangerous and you should
stop the medication.
Accutane rarely causes depression and thoughts of suicide.
If this were to occur stop the medicine immediately and call
your physician.
How does isotretinoin work?Isotretinoin decreases the amount
of oil produced by the skin's sebaceous (oil) glands. It may
be as long as two months before you see improvement in your
skin. There's no medicine we can add to speed up
isotretinoin's action. In fact, sometimes acne gets worse
during the first month or so of treatment. Side effects,
such as lip dryness, begin before the acne starts to clear.
How To Use Isotretinoin:Take the medicine with food, you can
take the entire daily dose with supper, this increases the
absorption of the medicine.
Long-term Results:Isotretinoin isn't a permanent cure for
acne, although it often buys time until nature clears your
skin. Your skin may stay clear for months, even years, after
isotretinoin is stopped. In about one person in 10, acne
comes back after one year. About one person in four has acne
again after two years. If your acne returns, antibiotics may
work, or you may be treated with isotretinoin again. The use
of daily alpha hydroxyacids will help prevent small
flare-ups after a course of Accutane.
Unblocking the openings of the sebaceous glands Accutane
also suppresses the production of skin cells which block the
openings to the sebaceous glands. As a result, the quantity
of comedones, or blackheads, and milia, or whiteheads, is
reduced. A decrease in comedones in turn causes a decrease
in the development of suppurations, or pus-filled acne
pimples, whose formation we seek to prevent.
Anti-inflammatory activity It has been found that
Accutane decreases inflammation in laboratory trials, yet
the clinical significance of this discovery remains unclear.
Accutane's side effects Accutane is particularly
effective in mid-range severity cases of acne, which have
not responded to treatments such as ointments or oral
antibiotics. The most significant risk in taking Accutane is
its potential for causing birth defects in the developing
fetus of a pregnant acne patient. Because of this risk,
female patients should take care not to conceive while using
Accutane and for at least three months following the end of
treatment.
How to get the most out of Accutane??
Attention female patients !!! Accutane has been proven to
cause birth defects in developing fetuses. Due to this
danger, it is absolutely prohibited to conceive during
Roaccutane treatment and for at least three months
thereafter. All female users of Accutane should use two
birth control methods during this entire period.
All patients: All Accutane users should expect mild
chapping of the lips, and occasionally peeling of the skin
surrounding the fingernails. The chapping and / or peeling
will disappear by the end of the treatment. Relief from dry
skin is available in the form of creams which the doctor
will provide. In rare cases, dryness of the nose, slight
hair loss, or impaired night vision is experienced, all of
which disappear by the end of treatment. In still rarer
cases, a change in liver function, an increase in fat
production, or mood changes can occur. Inform your doctor of
any kidney or liver disorders, high fat content in the
blood, or depression in your family or medical history. A
blood count should be performed before starting treatment,
as well as once a month during treatment. The doctor should
also be informed of any inordinate physical exertion
undergone by the patient during Accutane treatment. Avoid
taking any vitamin supplements, as well as over-exposure to
the sun, while taking Accutane.
