Acutret 5 Capsule contains isotretinoin 5 mg, a potent retinoid used for the treatment of severe, nodular, or treatment-resistant acne. It works by reducing the size and activity of sebaceous (oil) glands, thereby decreasing excessive sebum production—a key factor in acne development. Additionally, it helps prevent clogged pores and inflammation, promoting long-term skin clarity.
This oral medication is typically prescribed when other acne treatments have failed, and it should be used only under the guidance of a dermatologist due to its strength and potential side effects.
