Dermatologist prescribed Acitretin which improved appearance of skin after 2 weeks but gave me really sore cracked lips, and worried me because side effects can cause hair loss. Bad enough having rash everywhere without losing hair as well!Dermatologist prescribed Acitretin which improved appearance of skin after 2 weeks but gave me really sore cracked lips, and worried me because side effects can cause hair loss.

Anyone taking Acitretin Neotigason for Psoriasis?

My husband has just been given Acitretin 25g capsules for his Psoriasis. Anyone know if it works? He's only been taking them for 4 days and he's complained of a headache every morning.My husband has just been given Acitretin 25g capsules for his Psoriasis. Anyone know if it works?

Has anyone had to use Acitretin? Did it cause you 'headaches'?

Oh, and apparently the normal course of Acitretin is 4-6 weeks. I am really quite worried that I have been taking it for over 4 years. Has anyone else experienced anything even remotely similar?Oh, and apparently the normal course of Acitretin is 4-6 weeks. I am really quite worried that I have been taking it for over 4 years.
