• Always follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider and read the accompanying leaflet.
• Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, paranasal creases, and mucous membranes.
• Do not use excessive amounts, as it won’t improve efficacy and may cause irritation.
• Store in a controlled room temperature (below 80°F).
• Use sunscreen daily, as Tretinoin increases skin sensitivity to the sun.
