Abstract

Isotretinoin is the gold standard treatment for severe acne, but it has been controversially linked to psychiatric and sexual disorders. Using the well-validated PHQ-9 and CADI scoring systems, we demonstrated significantly improved mental health outcomes following completion of isotretinoin treatment for acne in our patient cohort over a 3-year period. We report no cases of suicidal ideation, suicide or erectile dysfunction.
