After 8 months of taking izotek 20mg in the morning and evening, I began to have serious health problems. Big problems with the liver, back pain. ( these pills did not help anything) was treated by a private dermatologist with more than 30 years of experience! In short, I do not recommend this drug.!

Izotek (isotretinoin) can cause side effects such as liver problems or musculoskeletal pain, including back pain. In the case of long-term treatment, it is necessary to regularly check the liver parameters and consult a doctor in case of adverse effects.
If the side effects are severe, you should stop therapy immediately and consult a dermatologist or hepatologist. It is also worth considering other, safer methods of acne treatment.

I encourage you to report the symptoms you experience to your doctor, as well as to report the occurrence of an adverse effect of the preparation. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article:
