Does isotroin cause weight gain?

My doctor prescribed Isotroin for my acne problem, and I just started taking it. I'm really worried about gaining weight because of the medicine.

I have been using Isotroin for 3 months and didn't face any weight gain. Just keep your hydration high.

I was so depressed during my severe acne phase and starting Isotroin made me super anxious about my body changing too. I felt bloated and heavy in the first month, but thankfully it didn't cause any real weight gain. Please be gentle on yourself.

Beta, these strong modern medicines create a lot of dryness and heat in the body. Eat simple home-cooked meals, drink fresh buttermilk, and avoid heavy sweets. It won't cause weight gain if you keep your lifestyle natural and simple.

Isotroin doesn't typically cause weight gain, but it can affect your lipid profile and liver enzymes. You must get regular blood tests done as advised by your dermatologist to ensure everything is running safely inside.

Humare bete ne ye dabaai khai thi doctor babu ke kehne par. Chehra bilkul saaf ho gaya aur koi vajan nahi badha. Aap bilkul fikar mat kariye, dabaai apna kaam achi tarah karegi.
