Tretiva 10 Capsule

Product Introduction
Tretiva 10 Capsule is a medication from the retinoid group, which are derivatives of vitamin A. It is primarily prescribed for the treatment of severe acne, especially when other therapies have not been effective.

This medicine should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor, preferably with meals, and ideally at the same time each day to maintain a consistent level in your body. It may take a few weeks before you start noticing improvement, so it’s important to continue using it regularly. If there’s no improvement after several weeks, consult your doctor for further evaluation.

Some common side effects may occur, such as dry skin, skin rashes, or an increase in liver enzyme levels. These effects are usually temporary and may reduce as your body adjusts to the treatment. However, if they become bothersome or persist, it is best to seek medical advice.

Since this medicine can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight, limit direct sun exposure and use protective measures like sunscreen. Your skin may also become more delicate, so avoid procedures like waxing or laser treatments while using it. It can cause dryness of the lips, eyes, and mouth, so staying well-hydrated and using moisturizers is recommended. Tretiva 10 Capsule is not safe during pregnancy as it can harm the unborn baby, so consult your doctor before use if you are pregnant or planning to conceive.

Uses of Tretiva 10 Capsule
Primarily used to manage and treat severe acne.

Benefits of Tretiva 10 Capsule
This medicine works by reducing the production of sebum, an oily substance that can lead to clogged pores and acne. By lowering sebum levels, it prevents the growth of acne-causing bacteria and helps clear up existing breakouts. It may take a few weeks to see visible improvement, and in some cases, acne may initially appear worse before getting better. Continued use as prescribed will gradually result in clearer and healthier skin, which can also help boost self-confidence.

Possible Side Effects
Most side effects are mild and temporary. Seek medical help if they persist or worsen.

• Dryness of skin
• Rash or irritation
• Elevated liver enzymes

How to Take Tretiva 10 Capsule
Swallow the capsule whole with water. Do not crush, chew, or break it. It should be taken with food to enhance absorption and reduce the risk of stomach upset.

How It Works
Tretiva 10 Capsule is a vitamin A derivative that reduces the activity of sebaceous glands, lowering sebum production. This not only prevents new acne formation but also kills acne-causing bacteria. It also has anti-inflammatory effects that reduce redness and swelling associated with acne.
