Generic Roaccutane Information on Uses
Isotretinoin - generic Roaccutane 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.
How is Generic Roaccutane - Isotretinoin Taken
Generic Roaccutane - isotretinoin capsules contain the active ingredient isotretinoin. Isotretinoin belongs to a group of medicines known as retinoids, which are derivatives of vitamin A. Isotretinoin - generic Roaccutane taken by mouth works by reducing the production of the skin's natural oil (sebum).
Generic Roaccutane - Isotretinoin decreases the size and activity of the sebaceous glands in the skin, which reduces the amount of sebum that is produced. This stops the glands becoming blocked, and means bacteria are less likely to thrive. It also reduces the inflammation in the skin.
Your acne may worsen at the start of treatment, but this usually subsides within 7 to 10 days of continued treatment. In most cases, complete or near-complete clearing of acne is achieved with a 12 to 16 week course of treatment, and you are likely to remain free of acne for a long time.

If you think you could be pregnant at any point during treatment or in the month after stopping treatment you must consult your doctor immediately.
