Isoplex Gel
- Description: Isoplex Gel is a topical medication that contains the active ingredient isotretinoin, which is a retinoid. It is a derivative of vitamin A and is used to treat acne. The gel is applied to the skin to help manage and prevent various forms of acne.
- Indication: Isoplex Gel is primarily indicated for the topical treatment of acne, including blackheads, whiteheads, and inflamed spots. It is used to reduce the production of oil (sebum) in the skin, unblock pores, and lower the number of red, inflamed acne spots. It may also be used to improve overall skin texture.
- Mechanism of Action: While the exact mechanism of action is not fully understood, it is believed that isotretinoin works by:
- Reducing sebum production: It decreases the size and activity of sebaceous glands, which are responsible for producing oil.
- Regulating cell growth: It influences how skin cells grow and shed, preventing them from clogging pores and forming comedones (blackheads and whiteheads).
- Anti-inflammatory effects: It helps to reduce the redness and swelling associated with acne by inhibiting inflammatory processes in the skin.
