| Information about Accutane (Isotroin) | Information About Benzac |
| Most Common Uses of Accutane Treats Cystic acne, Severe acne that has not responded to treatment with oral antibiotics ![]() How does Accutane work? Isotroin (Isotretinoin, Accutane) belongs to a group of medicines known as retinoids, which are derivatives of vitamin A. It works by reducing the production of the skins natural oil (sebum). Acne occurs due to an excessive production of sebum from over-active sebaceous glands in the skin. The sebum blocks the sebaceous glands, which prevents the oil from flowing freely out and causes an accumulation of sebum under the skin. The bacteria associated with acne thrive in these conditions. They feed on the sebum, and produce waste products and fatty acids that irritate the sebaceous glands, making them inflamed and causing spots. Isotroin (Isotretinoin, Accutane) 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,....

| Comedonal Acne | Pustular Acne |
| Comedonal acne is characterized by the presence of whiteheads and blackheads. There are certain topical medications that are geared towards the treatment of these lesions specifically. For instance, topical tretinoin (Retin-A) has long been considered the standard of treatment for comedones or whiteheads and blackheads. Recently, however, some newer topical medicines have been developed to attack these lesions. Such as Retin A and Cleocin T Nodulocystic Acne Nodulocystic acne is characterized by large, tender, red, and purple acne "bumps" or cysts under the skin. It can be quite severe, disfiguring and emotionally upsetting. Often this form of acne will not respond to traditional topical treatments nor traditional antibiotics. It is in these severe cases, that systemic isotretinoin or Isotroin is used. It is quite effective most of the time. It requires monitoring by a dermatologist skilled in using this medication. Also see Isotrex Gel Myths About Acne It is important to dispel some myths surrounding acne. On the whole, acne does not seem to be related to the consumption of chocolate or fried foods. Also, avoidance of "picking" and "popping" of lesions is particularly important to minimize the risk of scarring. |
Pustular acne appears just how it sounds. The presence of small pustules or tiny red pimples characterizes this form of acne. The classic approach to this form of acne depends on the severity. If it is mild, often benzoyl peroxide lotions or washes may be effective. However, in cases where pustular acne is more severe, benzoyl peroxide may not be enough. In this instance, topical antibiotics are used. Topical erythromycin gel 2% is a traditionally used approach, also Cleocin T Lotion (clindamycin) also known as Dalacin-T. There are many topical medicines that are quite effective at treating acne. Still, pustular acne may be so severe that topical medicines need to be used in conjunction with oral medications. Classically, oral Tetracycline has been used to treat acne. There are side effects and limitations with this form of acne. Tetracycline should not be used in pregnant females, children less than 8 years of age. Also, tetracycline may cause sun sensitivity, mild stomach upset, vaginal yeast infections and occasional headaches. Tetracycline needs to be taken on an empty stomach. However, there are many newer formulations of oral antibiotics that limit these restrictions and are quite effective. For very severe acne, systemic isotretinoin has become the treatment of choice. This medicine is very effective at treating resistant cases as well as severe cases of pustular and comedonal acne. |
