This potent oral retinoid (vitamin A derivative) is used to treat severe nodular acne and has been investigated in certain cancers. It works by dramatically reducing sebaceous gland size and oil production, normalizing skin cell turnover, and reducing inflammation. It carries a severe risk of birth defects and requires a strictly managed pregnancy prevention program during use.
