Isotretinoina Dutriec is used to treat severe, disfiguring nodular acne. It should be used only after other acne medicines have been tried and have failed to help the acne. Isotretinoina Dutriec may also be used to treat other skin diseases as determined by your doctor.
Isotretinoina Dutriec must not be used to treat women who are able to bear children unless other forms of treatment have been tried first and have failed. Isotretinoina Dutriec must not be taken during pregnancy because it causes birth defects in humans. If you are able to bear children, it is very important that you read, understand, and follow the pregnancy warnings for Isotretinoina Dutriec.
Isotretinoina Dutriec is available only under a registered distribution program called the iPLEDGE™ program.
Once a medicine has been approved for marketing for a certain use, experience may show that it is also useful for other medical problems. Although these uses are not included in product labeling, Isotretinoina Dutriec is used in certain patients with the following medical conditions:
Folliculitis, gram-negative (bacterial infection of the skin on the face beginning near the nose).
Hidradenitis suppurativa (sweat gland problem).
Rosacea (red skin disorder of the face, usually of the nose and cheeks).
Thickened or patchy skin disorders, such as keratosis follicularis, palmoplantar keratoderma, lamellar ichthyosis, or pityriasis rubra pilaris.
Isotretinoina Dutriec indications
An indication is a term used for the list of condition or symptom or illness for which the medicine is prescribed or used by the patient. For example, acetaminophen or paracetamol is used for fever by the patient, or the doctor prescribes it for a headache or body pains. Now fever, headache and body pains are the indications of paracetamol. A patient should be aware of the indications of medications used for common conditions because they can be taken over the counter in the pharmacy meaning without prescription by the Physician.

Severe Recalcitrant Nodular Acne
Isotretinoina Dutriec (isotret (isotret (Isotretinoina Dutriec capsules) inoin capsules) inoin capsules) is indicated for the treatment of severe recalcitrant nodular acne. Nodules are inflammatory lesions with a diameter of 5 mm or greater. The nodules may become suppurative or hemorrhagic. "Severe," by definition, means "many" as opposed to "few or several" nodules. Because of significant adverse effects associated with its use. Isotretinoina Dutriec (isotret (isotret (Isotretinoina Dutriec capsules) inoin capsules) inoin capsules) should be reserved for patients with severe nodular acne who are unresponsive to conventional therapy, including systemic antibiotics. In addition, Isotretinoina Dutriec (isotret (isotret (Isotretinoina Dutriec capsules) inoin capsules) inoin capsules) is indicated only for those female patients who are not pregnant, because Isotretinoina Dutriec can cause severe birth defects.
A single course of therapy for 15 to 20 weeks has been shown to result in complete and prolonged remission of disease in many patients. If a second course of therapy is needed, it should not be initiated until at least 8 weeks after completion of the first course, because experience has shown that patients may continue to improve while off isotret (isotret (isotret (Isotretinoina Dutriec capsules) inoin capsules) inoin capsules) inoin capsules. The optimal interval before retreatment has not been defined for patients who have not completed skeletal growth.

Isotretinoina Dutriec description
sponsored
Isotretinoina Dutriec is a medication used for the treatment of severe acne. It is sometimes used in prevention of certain skin cancers. It is a retinoid, meaning it derives from vitamin A and is found in small quantities naturally in the body. Isotretinoina Dutriec binds to and activates nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RAR), thereby regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. This agent also exhibits immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory responses and inhibits ornithine decarboxylase, thereby decreasing polyamine synthesis and keratinization.
Isotretinoina Dutriec dosage
Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) should be administered with a meal.
The recommended dosage range for Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) is 0.5 to 1.0 mg/kg/day given in two divided doses with food for 15 to 20 weeks. In studies comparing 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 mg/kg/day, it was found that all dosages provided initial clearing of disease, but there was a greater need for retreatment with the lower dosages. During treatment, the dose may be adjusted according to response of the disease and/or the appearance of clinical side effects — some of which may be dose related. Adult patients whose disease is very severe with scarring or is primarily manifested on the trunk may require dose adjustments up to 2.0 mg/kg/day, as tolerated. Failure to take Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) with food will significantly decrease absorption. Before upward dose adjustments are made, the patients should be questioned about their compliance with food instructions.
The safety of once daily dosing with Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) has not been established. Once daily dosing is not recommended.
If the total nodule count has been reduced by more than 70% prior to completing 15 to 20 weeks of treatment, the drug may be discontinued. After a period of 2 months or more off therapy, and if warranted by persistent or recurring severe nodular acne, a second course of therapy may be initiated. The optimal interval before retreatment has not been defined for patients who have not completed skeletal growth. Long-term use of Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec), even in low doses, has not been studied, and is not recommended. It is important that Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) be given at the recommended doses for no longer than the recommended duration. The effect of long-term use of Isotretinoina Dutriec on bone loss is unknown.
Contraceptive measures must be followed for any subsequent course of therapy.

Vitamin A: Because of the relationship of Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) to vitamin A, patients should be advised against taking vitamin supplements containing vitamin A to avoid additive toxic effects.
Tetracyclines: Concomitant treatment with Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) and tetracyclines should be avoided because Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) use has been associated with a number of cases of pseudotumor cerebri (benign intracranial hypertension), some of which involved concomitant use of tetracyclines.
Micro-dosed Progesterone Preparations: Micro-dosed progesterone preparations (“minipills” that do not contain an estrogen) may be an inadequate method of contraception during Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) therapy. Although other hormonal contraceptives are highly effective, there have been reports of pregnancy from female patients who have used combined oral contraceptives, as well as transdermal patch/injectable/implantable/vaginal ring hormonal birth control products. These reports are more frequent for female patients who use only a single method of contraception. It is not known if hormonal contraceptives differ in their effectiveness when used with Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec). Therefore, it is critically important for female patients of childbearing potential to select and commit to use 2 forms of effective contraception simultaneously, at least 1 of which must be a primary form.
Norethindrone/ethinyl estradiol: In a study of 31 premenopausal female patients with severe recalcitrant nodular acne receiving OrthoNovum® 7/7/7 Tablets as an oral contraceptive agent, Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) at the recommended dose of 1 mg/kg/day, did not induce clinically relevant changes in the pharmacokinetics of ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone and in the serum levels of progesterone, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). Prescribers are advised to consult the package insert of medication administered concomitantly with hormonal contraceptives, since some medications may decrease the effectiveness of these birth control products.
St. John's Wort: Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) use is associated with depression in some patients. Patients should be prospectively cautioned not to self-medicate with the herbal supplement St. John's Wort because a possible interaction has been suggested with hormonal contraceptives based on reports of breakthrough bleeding on oral contraceptives shortly after starting St. John's Wort. Pregnancies have been reported by users of combined hormonal contraceptives who also used some form of St. John's Wort.
Phenytoin: Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) has not been shown to alter the pharmacokinetics of phenytoin in a study in seven healthy volunteers. These results are consistent with the in vitro finding that neither Isotretinoina Dutriec nor its metabolites induce or inhibit the activity of the CYP 2C9 human hepatic P450 enzyme. Phenytoin is known to cause osteomalacia. No formal clinical studies have been conducted to assess if there is an interactive effect on bone loss between phenytoin and Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec). Therefore, caution should be exercised when using these drugs together.
Systemic Corticosteroids: Systemic corticosteroids are known to cause osteoporosis. No formal clinical studies have been conducted to assess if there is an interactive effect on bone loss between systemic corticosteroids and Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec). Therefore, caution should be exercised when using these drugs together.
Laboratory Tests
Pregnancy Test
Female patients of childbearing potential must have had two negative urine or serum pregnancy tests with a sensitivity of at least 25 mIU/mL before receiving the initial Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) prescription. The first test (a screening test) is obtained by the prescriber when the decision is made to pursue qualification of the patient for Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec). The second pregnancy test (a confirmation test) must be done in a CLIA-certified laboratory. The interval between the two tests must be at least 19 days.
For patients with regular menstrual cycles, the second pregnancy test must be done during the first 5 days of the menstrual period immediately preceding the beginning of Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) therapy and after the patient has used 2 forms of contraception for 1 month.
For patients with amenorrhea, irregular cycles, or using a contraceptive method that precludes withdrawal bleeding, the second pregnancy test must be done immediately preceding the beginning of Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) therapy and after the patient has used 2 forms of contraception for 1 month.
Each month of therapy, patients must have a negative result from a urine or serum pregnancy test. A pregnancy test must be repeated each month, in a CLIA-certified laboratory, prior to the female patient receiving each prescription.
Lipids: Pretreatment and follow-up blood lipids should be obtained under fasting conditions. After consumption of alcohol, at least 36 hours should elapse before these determinations are made. It is recommended that these tests be performed at weekly or biweekly intervals until the lipid response to Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) is established. The incidence of hypertriglyceridemia is 1 patient in 4 on Isotretinoina Dutriec therapy.
Liver Function Tests: Since elevations of liver enzymes have been observed during clinical trials, and hepatitis has been reported, pretreatment and follow-up liver function tests should be performed at weekly or biweekly intervals until the response to Isotretinoina Dutriec has been established.
Glucose: Some patients receiving Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) have experienced problems in the control of their blood sugar. In addition, new cases of diabetes have been diagnosed during Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) therapy, although no causal relationship has been established.
CPK: Some patients undergoing vigorous physical activity while on Isotretinoina Dutriec (Isotretinoina Dutriec) therapy have experienced elevated CPK levels; however, the clinical significance is unknown. There have been rare postmarketing reports of rhabdomyolysis, some associated with strenuous physical activity. In a clinical trial of 217 pediatric patients (12 to 17 years) with severe recalcitrant nodular acne, transient elevations in CPK were observed in 12% of patients, including those undergoing strenuous physical activity in association with reported musculoskeletal adverse events such as back pain, arthralgia, limb injury, or muscle sprain. In these patients, approximately half of the CPK elevations returned to normal within 2 weeks and half returned to normal within 4 weeks. No cases of rhabdomyolysis were reported in this trial.

The following adverse reactions have been reported in clinical trials conducted with Isotretinoina Dutriec: glomerulonephritis, nonspecific urogenital findings.
Hypersensitivity to Isotretinoina Dutriec or to any of the excipients of Isotretinoina Dutriec. Hepatic or renal insufficiency; hypervitaminosis A; patients with excessively elevated blood lipid values.
Use in pregnancy: Pregnancy Category X: Isotretinoina Dutriec is highly teratogenic. It is, therefore, contraindicated not only in women who are pregnant or who may become pregnant while undergoing treatment but also in all women of childbearing potential. There is an extremely high risk that a deformed infant will result if pregnancy occurs while taking Isotretinoina Dutriec in any amount even for short periods. Potentially all exposed foetuses can be affected.
Isotretinoina Dutriec is contraindicated in women of childbearing potential unless the female patient meets all of the following conditions: Severe disfiguring cystic acne resistant to standard therapies; reliability in understanding and carrying out instructions; compliance with the mandatory contraceptive measures; informed by the physician of the hazards of becoming pregnant during and 1 month after treatment with Isotretinoina Dutriec and warned of the possibility of contraceptive failure; confirms that patient has understood the warnings; negative pregnancy test within 2 weeks prior to beginning therapy, monthly repetition of pregnancy testing is recommended; use effective contraception without any interruption for at least 1 month before beginning Isotretinoina Dutriec therapy, during therapy and for 1 month following discontinuation of therapy. At least 1 and preferably 2 complementary forms of contraception including a barrier method should be used. Microdosed progesterone preparations (minipills) may be an inadequate method of contraception during Isotretinoina Dutriec therapy. If the patient starts Isotretinoina Dutriec therapy only on the 2nd or 3rd day of the next menstrual period; in the event of relapse treatments, patient must also use the same uninterrupted and effective contraceptive measures 1 month prior to, during and for 1 month after Isotretinoina Dutriec therapy; must fully understand the precautions and confirm patient understanding and willingness to comply with reliable contraceptive measures as explained.
Even female patients, who normally do not employ contraception because of a history of infertility, should be advised to do so while taking Isotretinoina Dutriec, following the previously stated guidelines.
Should pregnancy occur inspite of these precautions during treatment with Isotretinoina Dutriec or in the month following, there is a great risk of very severe malformation of the foetus (involving in particular the central nervous system, heart and large blood vessels). If pregnancy does occur, the physician and patient should discuss the advisability of continuing the pregnancy.
Major human foetal abnormalities related to Isotretinoina Dutriec administration have been documented, including hydrocephalus, microcephalus, abnormalities of the external ear (micropinna, small or absent external auditory canals), microphthalmia, cardiovascular abnormalities, facial dysmorphia, thymus gland abnormalities, parathyroid hormone deficiency and cerebellar malformation. There is also an increased risk of spontaneous abortion.
Isotretinoina Dutriec is highly teratogenic and must not be given to women who are pregnant. Isotretinoina Dutriec crosses the placental barrier in amounts that lead to congenital deformities. There is an extremely high risk that a deformed infant will result if pregnancy occurs while taking Isotretinoina Dutriec in any amount even for short periods. Potentially all exposed foetuses can be affected.
