Skin Care - Retin-A (Generic) |
|
 Tretinoin is a topical form of vitamin A. It helps the skin to renew itself more quickly and therefore reduces pimple and blackhead formation, and may improve the appearance and texture of skin. The Retin-A and Avita brands of tretinoin topical are used to treat acne. The Renova brand of tretinoin topical is used to reduce the appearance of fine wrinkles and mottled skin discoloration, and to make rough facial skin feel smoother. Tretinoin topical may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.

Most important fact about Retin-A
While using Retin-A, keep exposure to sunlight, including sunlamps, to a minimum. If you have a sunburn, do not use the medication until you have fully recovered. Use of sunscreen products (at least SPF 15) and protective clothing over treated areas is recommended when exposure to the sun cannot be avoided. Weather extremes, such as wind and cold, may be irritating and should also be avoided while using these products.
How should you take Retin-A?
Retin-A should be applied once a day, in the evening, to the skin where acne appears, using enough to lightly cover the affected area. The liquid form may be applied using a fingertip, gauze pad, or cotton swab. If you use gauze or cotton, avoid oversaturation, which might cause the liquid to run into areas where treatment is not intended. If your skin becomes too dry, you may want to use petroleum jelly or another emollient during the day. If there is no immediate improvement, or new blemishes appear, don't get discouraged; it takes weeks for the medicine to take effect. Continue applying the prescribed amount. (Do not increase the dosage; it may irritate your skin.) Do not stop treatment when improvement finally occurs. You must continue therapy to maintain the beneficial effect. --If you miss a dose...Resume your regular schedule the next day.
What Retin-A side effects may occur?
If you have sensitive skin, the use of Retin-A may cause your skin to become excessively red, puffy, blistered, or crusted. If this happens, notify your doctor, who may recommend that you discontinue the medication until your skin returns to normal, or adjust the medication to a level that you can tolerate. An unusual darkening of the skin or lack of color of the skin may occur temporarily with repeated application of Retin-A.
Retin-A Side effects are generally not severe and may include burning, dry skin, itching, peeling, redness, and stinging.
Recommended dosage
Apply once a day in the evening. You should begin to notice results after 2 to 3 weeks of treatment. More than 6 or 7 weeks of treatment are needed before consistent beneficial effects appear. Once acne has responded satisfactorily, it may be possible to maintain the improvement with less frequent applications or other dosage forms. However, any change in formulation, drug concentration, or dose frequency should be closely monitored by your doctor to determine your tolerance and response.
