Isotretinoin works by reducing the amount of oil released by oil glands in the skin, which can help clear acne. This medication is often considered when other acne treatments have failed to provide adequate results.

What precautions apply to Isotretinoin?

Amnesteem 20 mg capsules should be handled with care, especially during pregnancy, as isotretinoin can cause serious birth defects.

Amnesteem 20 mg capsules can interact with certain medications, including vitamins, herbal supplements, and other acne treatments. Alcohol and certain antibiotics may also interact with isotretinoin. Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are taking.
