Roaccutane 20mg contains isotretinoin, a retinoid related to vitamin A and a powerful systemic treatment for severe acne. It is generally reserved for severe forms of acne, including nodular or cystic acne, acne at risk of permanent scarring, or acne that has not responded adequately to standard treatments.

Isotretinoin reduces the activity and size of sebaceous glands, decreases sebum production, and helps reduce processes that contribute to acne formation.
