Acutret is usually prescribed when other treatments for acne have not worked, this is because it is a powerful treatment.
Unlike other acne treatments that are prescribed for mild acne, Acutret is effective in the treatment of recalcitrant nodular acne.
Nodular acne occurs when bacteria gets trapped in your skin’s pores and causes on-going infection. This type of acne doesn’t react to many, less powerful, acne treatments because it’s caused by infection.
