ConclusionCompliance with the contraceptive use according to a PPP for a teratogenic drug such as isotretinoin is 52%–64%, which is lower than anticipated. Reasons for the low compliance will need to be clarified before further measures can be taken. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. (Source: Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety)

The effects of systemic isotretinoin and antibiotic therapy on the microbial floras in patients with acne vulgaris
Sun, 01 Jan 2012 05:00:00 +0100 | Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology
Conclusions  Systemic isotretinoin and antibiotic treatments in acne patients precisely caused variations in the microbial floras of several sites of the body, while isotretinoin was commonly more responsible than antibiotics. Knowing that alterations in the microbial colonization of the flora regions may preceede infectious disease and bacterial resistance, treatment options and follow‐up procedures in acne vulgaris should be carefully determined to reduce the risk of destruction of the microbial flora.
