Usage of Tretinoin:
Isotretinoin or 13-cis retinoic acid is a very effective medication for the treatment of acne . It is a retinoid; this means it is derived from vitamin-A (retinoic acid). The liver naturally makes small quantities of isotretinoin from vitamin-A, but the drug we prescribe is made synthetically.
