The TGA has announced that new safety information will be added to all isotretinoin products, a prescription medicine for severe cystic acne, after 117 cases of "serious" psychiatric adverse events were identified in Australia.
Isotretonoin was orginally sold as Roche's Roaccutane and has been since genericised under the brand names: Apo-isotretinoin, Isotretinoin Gx, Isotretinoin Lupin and Isotreinoin-wgr.
