Medical uses
Due to side-effects and high cost, isotretinoin is used primarily for severe cystic acne and acne that has not responded to other treatments. Acne treatment usually begins with topical medications (e.g., benzoyl peroxide and adapalene), followed by oral antibiotics and isotretinoin as a last resort.
