HOW
TO USE THIS MEDICATION
Patient instructions are available with Retin-A. Read
them carefully before using. Apply a thin layer of Retin-A
to affected area at bedtime. Use a gauze pad or cotton
swab to apply the liquid. Wash hands immediately after
use. Using this medication more frequently or in excessive
amounts does not improve the results, but may increase
side effects. Avoid applying near the eyes, mouth, or
open cuts since this medication can irritate sensitive
skin. Acne may appear to worsen when the medication
is first used; do not discontinue therapy. It may take
three to six weeks before the full benefits of this
medication are seen.

mild stinging or redness may occur. Some peeling of
the skin may also occur. These effects should subside
as your skin adjusts to Retin-A. If they persist or
become bothersome, inform your doctor. This medicine
may also increase sun sensitivity.

This medication should be used during pregnancy only
if clearly needed. It is not known if tretinoin appears

Use mild soap when washing your face. Do not wash face
