Are There Any Side Effects For Taking Acutret?

Hi, After trying nearly everything, a friends dermatologist suggested to take Acutret for my pimple problem. The pimples went away after medication of 2-3 months A year later the problem recurred so she gave me the same dosage of Acutret 20mg for 2-3 moonths and said i could take acutret in such dosage whenever i get a pimple problem. So wanted to ask if such regular intake of acutret is harmful in anyway. Im a 20 year old girl.

Hi dear acutret is a Vitamin A supplement in topical form possible side effects nausea, dryness of mouth, bad taste, weakness, increase in heart beat but are less common and occurs rarely. As a preventive measure take plenty of water and use sunscreen lotion and avoid sudden change of atmosphere and stress. Avoid oily and spicy junk food.
Hope this information helps
Thanks and regards
