Tretin Cream is a topical medication that belongs to the retinoid class, derived from vitamin A. It is used to treat various skin conditions, primarily acne.

Tretin Cream works by loosening and unblocking pores on the skin's surface. It reduces the production of oil (sebum) in the skin, which helps prevent the formation of pimples, whiteheads, and blackheads.

Tretin Cream is generally effective for treating mild to moderate acne. It may also be prescribed for other skin conditions under medical supervision.

Apply a thin layer of Tretin Cream to clean, dry skin in the affected areas once daily, usually in the evening or as directed by a healthcare provider. Avoid applying near the eyes, mouth, or mucous membranes.

Some individuals may experience mild irritation, redness, or peeling when starting Tretin Cream. This is normal as the skin adjusts to the medication. Use a moisturizer as needed and consult a healthcare provider if irritation persists.

Avoid using abrasive or drying skincare products alongside Tretin Cream unless recommended by a doctor. It is essential to follow your provider's instructions for a complete skincare regimen.
