Isotretinoin
The Generic name of this drug
Treatment Summary
Isotretinoin is a type of vitamin A used to treat severe acne that doesn't respond to other treatments. It was previously sold under the brand name Accutane, but is no longer available. Isotretinoin can cause serious side effects during pregnancy, so it is only available through a special program called iPLEDGE in the United States. The first isotretinoin product was approved by the FDA in 1982.

How Myorisan Affects Patients
We don't know much about how isotretinoin works in the body.
How Myorisan works in the body
Isotretinoin works to clear up acne by blocking pores and killing bacteria in the skin. It does this by reducing sebum production, which helps prevent clogged pores, as well as by killing sebocytes and reducing hyperkeratinization. It also makes the environment less hospitable for acne-causing bacteria and may boost your immune response to fight inflammation. There is some evidence that isotretinoin may interact with a protein called FoxO1, which could explain some of its effects.
