Tretion 0.025% Cream 20gm is applied topically.

Tretion 0.025% Cream 20gm contains Tretinoin (0.025%), which works on the skin in the following ways:

• Decreases Cohesiveness of Follicular Epithelial Cells: This means it reduces the stickiness between skin cells in the hair follicles. This action helps in preventing the formation of microcomedones, which are small bumps or whiteheads that later develop into acne.

• Increases Turnover of Follicular Epithelial Cells: Tretinoin promotes the growth and replacement of skin cells, helping to push out the cells that clog the hair follicles.

• Modifies Gene Expression and Cell Growth: Tretinoin interacts with specific receptors inside skin cells, potentially altering the way genes control cell growth and differentiation. This can result in further reduction of acne and improvement in skin condition.

• Keep your tube of Tretion 0.025% Cream 20gm in a clean, dry place, away from heat and direct sunlight.

• The ideal temperature range for storage is room temperature.

• Don't store it in the bathroom or near a sink, as moisture can harm the medication.

• Always keep this cream out of reach of children.

• Be sure to use it before the expiry date mentioned on the tube.

• If you're using Tretion 0.025% Cream 20gm to manage acne, try to maintain a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. These foods have antioxidants that may help improve skin health.

• Regular exercise can also be beneficial as it reduces stress levels. High stress can worsen acne, so activities like yoga or walking could help manage your skin condition better. Remember to consult your doctor for personalised advice.
