Hi, tretiva is a medicine which has good effect on acne but it has multiple serious side effects. So please do not take it without consultation with your dermatologist who will be able to decide the exact dosage and duration of it and also it needs few investigations before we start it.

Hi lybrate-user. U can continue the same medications. Start using a sunscreen with a spf of around 30 to 50 which is non comedogenic (acne uv sunscreen gel) and a moisturiser (aqua soft fc) at night times since you can experience some dryness due to usage of tretiva tablets.
