Lawrence Green, MD, a board-certified dermatologist and clinical professor of dermatology at George Washington University School of Medicine, discusses the use of Absorica LD for patients with severe nodulocystic acne or whose acne has not responded to topical agents, oral antibiotics, or hormonal therapies. Unlike other isotretinoins that must be taken twice daily with fatty meals, Dr. Green explains that Absorica LD has been shown to be almost equally absorbed with or without food. There are simplified dosing options made possible by multiple dosing strengths, allowing straightforward weight-based regimens that reduce dosing errors.
