More facts about Generic Accutane (Isotretinoin 5 mg):

What is the medication sold under the name Accutane?

Accutane is a brand name registered for the medication Isotretinoin that has an anti-inflammatory, anti-seborrheic, derma protective and anti-acne action. The brand is owned by the first company who developed the active ingredient and started marketing it, a Swiss pharmaceutical company Hoffmann-La Roche AG. The studies on the active ingredient started back in the 1960s but the drug was approved for the above-mentioned uses only in the mid-eighties of the twentieth century. As you have probably guessed since there are available generic versions of the medicine, the right to make this medication exclusively by its developer had already expired which means that other pharmaceutical concerns and even small companies can use the formula and make their own drugs. For consumers, it means that they can buy Accutane much cheaper if they opt for Isotretinoin made by another company. Read further to know how to find the right drug, where to buy it cheaper, and how to use it properly without suffering from adverse effects.

When is Accutane used?

Accutane comes in different formulations – oral pills, rectal suppositories, and ointments. The tablets we offer you to purchase at this webpage are suitable for the therapy of severe acne and in particular nodular and conglobate acne, acne with a tendency to leave scars, and in general acne that are not effectively treated with the standard treatment methods such as systemic antibiotic therapy and topical treatment.
