ISOTRETINOIN 10MG TABLET
ISOTRETINOIN 10MG TABLET 10's is classified as a retinoid medication, which is a synthetic derivative of vitamin A. It is primarily prescribed for the treatment of a severe and stubborn form of acne known as nodular acne, which does not respond to other treatments, including antibiotics.

These acne nodules are typically larger in size compared to ordinary pimples.
