How should I use this medicine?
This medicine is typically taken orally. Follow these instructions for safe and effective use:
- Take this medicine by mouth with a glass of water.
- Follow the directions on the prescription label carefully. Do not deviate from the prescribed dosage or schedule.

- If this medicine upsets your stomach, take it with food or milk.
- Take your doses at regular intervals. Consistency in timing helps maintain a steady level of the medicine in your body.
- Do not take your medicine more often than directed. Taking more than prescribed will not improve your condition faster and may increase the risk of side effects.
Use in Children: Talk to your pediatrician regarding the use of this medicine in children. While this drug may be prescribed for children as young as 13 years of age, precautions do apply. Pediatric use requires careful monitoring and consideration of potential risks and benefits.
Overdosage: If you think you've taken too much of this medicine, contact a poison control center or emergency room at once. Prompt medical attention is crucial in cases of overdose.
What if I miss a dose?
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is less than four hours to your next dose, take only that dose and skip the missed dose. Do not take double or extra doses to make up for the missed one.

What should I watch for while using this medicine?
While taking this medicine, be aware of the following:
- You may experience a flare in your acne during the initial treatment period. This is a normal part of the process and should subside with continued use.
- You will need to see your doctor or health care professional monthly to get a new prescription and to check on your progress and for side effects. Regular monitoring is essential to ensure the medicine is working effectively and to identify any potential problems early.
- Do not give blood while taking this medicine and for 30 days after completion of treatment to avoid exposing pregnant women to this medicine through the donated blood. This medication can cause severe birth defects.
- Some patients have become depressed or developed serious mental problems while taking this medicine or soon after stopping. Stop taking this medicine if you start feeling depressed or have thoughts of violence or suicide. Contact your doctor immediately.

- If you wear contact lenses, they may feel uncomfortable. If your eyes get dry, check with your eye doctor. This medicine may decrease your night vision or cause other changes in vision.
