عنوان انگلیسی A Review of the Misuse of Isotretinoin in South Africa
چکیده انگلیسی مقاله Isotretinoin is a potent retinoid drug that is primarily used for the treatment of severe acne. Because of this the drug has attracted attention and has the potential for abuse and misuse. This review manuscript aims to explore the dimensions of isotretinoin abuse in South Africa. Discussed herein are the epidemiological trends, underlying motivations and associated health risks of Isotretinoin. The sociocultural and economic factors that contribute to this abuse is explored. Furthermore, Isotretinoin is rather perceived as a cosmetic enhancement tool, while it has controlled its accessibility. Hence, the regulatory framework that governs the access to controlled substances such as isotretinoin in South Africa is analysed and the gaps and enforcement challenges that allow for the misuse are explored. Isotretinoin remains an valuable drug in the management of severe acne. However, its potential for abuse in South Africa requires a comprehensive approach involving healthcare professionals, policymakers, and the public to ensure safe and appropriate use through implementing innovative rational medicine use (RMU) interventions that aim to protect public health while ensuring access for those with sincere need.
