What are the pros and cons of using low dose Accutane/Isotretinoin for treating acne?

Doctor's Answer

Hi,

The pros of low-dose isotretinoin therapy for acne include lower costs, less initial flare, less lip/skin dryness and other side-effects.

The cons include inability to control more severe acne and less likely to prevent relapses in the long term.

Hope this helps!
