How Cosmotrin works

Cosmotrin is a form of vitamin A. When applied on skin, it reduces oil production in the skin, replenishes acne-prone skin and helps keep your pores open.

If you miss a dose of Cosmotrin, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

Quick Tips

You have been prescribed Cosmotrin for the treatment of acne.

Clean the affected area with water and a non-medicated soap. Let it dry for 20-30 minutes before applying Cosmotrin.

It may increase the severity of the spots or pimples in the first few weeks of use. Continue using it as prescribed by your doctor.

It may cause a stinging sensation or a feeling of warmth when you first start using it. Inform your doctor if this persists.

Avoid exposure to sunlight while using Cosmotrin as it increases the sensitivity of your skin. Use protective measures such as sunscreen or protective clothing.

Avoid face waxing and laser treatment while using this medicine as it makes your skin more fragile.

Avoid taking tetracycline (e.g. doxycycline) as it may reduce the Cosmotrin activity.

Do not use Cosmotrin if you are pregnant.

Inform your doctor if excessive skin dryness or skin sensitivity take place.

Mode of Action

Tretinoin is a trans-retinoic acid form of vitimin A. It stimulates mitosis and turnover of follicular epithelial cells and reduce their cohesiveness. This facilitates extrusion of existing comedones and prevents formation of new comedone. It also exhibits thinning effect on the stratum corneum. In acute promyelocytic leukaemia, it induces cellular differentiation and decreases proliferations.

Precaution

Avoid concomitant topical applications, esp keratolytic agents. Avoid exposure to sunlight, UV light and weather extremes (e.g. cold). Keep away from eyes, mouth, angles of nose, mucous membranes or open wounds. In case of severe local erythema, oedema, blistering or crusting, use less frequently or discontinue. Avoid medicated or drying soaps, abrasive soaps and cleansers, frequent washing and harsh scrubbing. Avoid use of topical preparations with high concentrations of alcohol, menthol, spices or lime.

Side Effect

Initial exacerbation of symptoms, skin irritation, stinging on application, oedema, blistering, crusting of the skin, erythema, scaling, photosensitivity, temporary hypo/hyperpigmentation.

Interaction

Enhances percutaneous absorption of minoxidil. Increased risk of fatal thrombotic complications with antifibrinolytic. Increased tretinoin concentrations with azole antifungals. Enhances peeling action of sulphur, resorcinol, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid. Increased photosensitivity with photosensitising medications eg, thiazides, tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, phenothiazines and sulfonamides. Potentially Fatal: Increased risk of intracranial pressure with tetracyclines.
