Hello,
Isotrin which contains Isotretinoin is used for serious comedonic acne if not responding to general treatment for acne
This is very effective but may have to take this for long time and may require repeat cycle of this.So lets have a consult your dermatologist whether to start isotretenoin again if needed.While taking this medicine one must tell the doctor whether you are planning to conceive as this is strictly prohibited for pregnant patients.
Hope this helps.Take care.
Thank you.
