What’s the problem?
Amnesteem is an acne medication that uses isotretinoin, the same active ingredient used in Accutane. On June 26, 2009, Roche Holding AG, the manufacturer of Accutane initiated a nationwide recall of the popular acne medication when isotretinoin was linked to a number of severe and life-threatening side effects. However, even after the Accutane recall, generic forms of the drug such as Claravis,Amnesteem and Sotret were still prescribed. Individuals who have used Claravis and been exposed to isotretinoin may experience severe and potentially fatal side effects.
