Isotretinoin ( INN ) (pronounced /a?so?tr??t?no??n/ or /?a?so?tr??t?no??n/ [ 1 ] ) is a medication used for the treatment of moderate to severe acne . It is sometimes used as a chemotherapy medication for prevention and treatment of certain skin cancers. In some cases, it is used to treat Harlequin type ichthyosis , a usually lethal skin deformation in which sufferers develop armor plated-like skin and usually die soon after birth. It is a retinoid , meaning it derives from vitamin A and is found in small quantities naturally in the body. Oral isotretinoin is marketed under various trade names, most commonly Accutane ( Roche ), Amnesteem ( Mylan ), Claravis ( Barr ), Decutan ( Actavis ), Isotane ( Pacific Pharmaceuticals ), Sotret ( Ranbaxy ), Oratane (Genepharm Australasia) or Roaccutane ( Roche ), Izotek ( BlauFarma ); while topical isotretinoin is most commonly marketed under the trade names Isotrex or Isotrexin ( Stiefel ).
