Product Introduction

Sotret 20 mg contains a powerful oral retinoid called Isotretinoin, used for treating severe acne, especially nodular, cystic, and treatment-resistant acne.
It works by decreasing excessive oil production, shrinking sebaceous glands, unclogging pores, and preventing new acne from forming.

Isotretinoin is known for long-term results when taken under proper dermatological monitoring. This is a medication that can be used only on prescription, with regular follow-ups due to its strong effects.

Key Benefits

• Treats Severe Acne: Effective for cystic, nodular, and persistent acne.

• Controls Oil Production: Reduces sebum levels drastically.

• Prevents New Breakouts: Clears pores and prevents future acne formation.

• Improves Skin Texture: Helps reduce acne marks and scars over time.

• Long-Term Solution: Often leads to permanent or long-lasting acne remission.

How to Use

1. Take Sotret exactly as prescribed by your dermatologist.

2. Swallow the capsule with water, preferably after meals.

3. Do not skip doses or change the dosage without consulting your doctor.

4. Regular blood tests may be required as advised by the dermatologist.

5. Use sunscreen daily, as skin becomes highly sensitive to sunlight.
