Welcome to Buy Antibiotics.com
- Your Online Antibiotics Specialist.

Retin-A (Tretinoin) - Retin-A is
a Vitamin-A derivative used effectively in the
treatment of Acne Vulgaris. Retin-A, used as a
topical application, is thought to loosen and expel
existing acne plugs in the skin and prevent new
lesions from forming. Retin-A directly attacks
the primary cause of acne, the Propionibacterium
acnes bacterium.
The new formulation Retin-A Microgel
releases the tretinoin acid over a longer period
of time and is less irritating.

About topical retinoids
Common Brand Names: Retin-A,
Renova, Vitamin A Acid, Retin-A Micro, Tretinoin.
Pronounced: RHET-IN-A.
Generic name: Tretinoin Acid
Retin-A
Directions
Apply a thin layer of your Retin-A
to the affected area at bedtime, making sure to
wash your hands immediately after use. Avoid applying
Retin-A near the eyes, mouth, or near open cuts
since this can irritate sensitive skin. Acne may
appear to worsen when Retin-A is first applied,
however, continue therapy as it may take three
to six weeks before the full benefits of Retin-A
are seen.
Retin-A acts to reduce the formation
of pimples and promotes quicker healing of those
pimples that do develop. A benefit of using topical
retinoids is that they may help diminish the
signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles.
Using Retin-A more frequently or in excessive amounts
does not improve the results, but may actually
increase any side effects.
Retin-A 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 Retin-A. If they persist or become bothersome,
inform your doctor. Retin-A may also increase sun
sensitivity.
Retin-A Precautions
Use mild soap when washing your face.
Do not wash face excessively. Abrasive soaps, cleansers,
medicated creams or lotions can increase skin irritation. Retin-A
can increase sensitivity to sunlight, wind and
cold. Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun and sunlamps.
Wear protective clothing and use an effective sunscreen.
Retin-A should be used during pregnancy only if
clearly needed. It is not known if tretinoin appears
in breast milk. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
Consult your doctor or pharmacist about their use.
Use other acne preparations with caution while
using Retin-A.
Uses
of Retin-A
Acne
Retin-A Micro (Tretinoin) is p rescribed
to treat acne ranging from mild to moderately severe,
topical retinoids are a derivative of vitamin A
and considered a cornerstone in acne treatment.
Retinoids work to unclog pores and prevent whiteheads
and blackheads from forming. Topical retinoids
such as Retin-A can irritate the skin and increase
sun sensitivity so it is important to use sun protection.
A benefit in using topical retinoids is that they
may help diminish the signs of aging, such as fine
lines and wrinkles. The new formulation Retin-A
Microgel 0.1% releases tretinoin over a longer
period of time and is thus less irritating to the
skin.
For patients with moderate to severe
acne, oral antibiotics have been a mainstay of
therapy for years. Like topical antimicrobials, oral
antibiotics work to reduce the Propionibacterium
acnes population (a major factor in acne), which,
in turn, decreases inflammation. Treatment with
oral antibiotics such as Tetracycline or
synthetic derivatives of tetracycline (Doxycycline and Minocycline)
are used to treat acne and usually begin with a
higher dosage, which is reduced as acne resolves.
Generally, antibiotics are prescribed for six months
or less.
