Retin-A Information
Here is some general information
about Retin-A.
Uses
This medication is used in the
treatment of acne. Retin-A reduces the formation of pimples and
promotes quick healing of pimples that do develop.
How to take this medication
Patient instructions are available
with the product. Read them carefully before using. Apply a thin
layer to affected area at bedtime. Use a gauze pad or cotton swab
to apply the liquid. Wash hands immediately after use. Using Retin-A
more frequently or in excessive amounts does not improve the results,
but may increase side effects. Avoid applying near the eyes, mouth,
or open cuts since this medication can irritate sensitive skin.
Acne may appear to worsen when the medication is first used; continue
therapy. It may take three to six weeks before the full benefits
of this medication are seen.
Side effects
Immediately after applying Retin-A,
the skin may feel warm or mild stinging or redness may occur.
Some peeling of the skin may occur. These effects should subside
as your skin adjusts to the medication. If they persist or become
bothersome, inform your doctor. This medicine may also increase
sun sensitivity.

to sunlight, wind and cold. Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun
and sunlamps. Wear protective clothing and use an effective sunscreen.

needed. It is not known if tretinoin appears in breast milk. Consult
your doctor before breast-feeding. Use mild soap when washing
your face. Do not wash face excessively. Abrasive soaps, cleansers,
medicated creams or lotions can increase skin irritation. Consult
your doctor or pharmacist about their use. Use other acne preparations
