Using Acutret, Experiencing Hair Fall. Should I Continue Using It?

I've been using acutret for about a month now and I'm having typical hair loss. Every time I take a shower I see about 20 to 30 hairs and they fall even while I brush em... Any way I'm happy about my face as my acne is reduced considerably.. Only thing bugging me is this hair fall... So do I continue it or what do u wan me to do???

Hi
You have not mentioned which form of Acutret( a preparation of Isotretinoin by IPCA Lab) oral tab or locally as cream. Falling of Hairs (allopecia) is very rare complication after taking Isotretinoin orally. You can change to local application as cream. You can try Preparations of Biotin(Vitamin H).
