Which of the following is NOT listed as a caution or interaction for Isotretinoin?

Steroids

The correct answer is: Aspirin

Isotretinoin is a medication used to treat severe acne. One of the common side effects of Isotretinoin is that it can increase the pressure in the brain which can lead to severe headaches and vision problems. Caution should be taken with medications and supplements that can also increase this pressure. Among the options provided: - A. Vitamin A supplements should be avoided with Isotretinoin because both can increase the risk of vitamin A toxicity. - B. Tetracyclines can increase the risk of pseudotumor cerebri when used with Isotretinoin, so caution is advised. - D. Steroids can interact with Isotretinoin potentially increasing the risk of side effects. Therefore, C. Aspirin is NOT typically listed as a caution or interaction with Isotretinoin.
