Vesanoid / Tretinoin 10 mg by Roche is used to treat a certain type of cancer of the white blood cells such as acute promyelocytic leukemia.
Indications:
- For the treatment of acne vulgaris in which comedones, papules and pustules predominate.
- For the treatment of hyperpigmentation, roughness and fine wrinkling of photodamaged skin due to chronic sun exposure.
- For the treatment of Acute promyelocytic leukaemia
Therapeutic Class: Topical retinoid and related preparations
Pharmacology: Tretinoin / Vesanoid is structurally and pharmacologically related to vitamin A. Current evidence suggests that topical Tretinoin decreases cohesiveness of follicular epithelial cells with decreased microcomedone formation.
Additionally, Tretinoin stimulates mitotic activity and increases turnover of follicular epithelial cells, causing extrusion of the comedones
Dosage & Administration: Tretinoin cream: Tretinoin / Vesanoid cream should be applied sparingly to the whole affected area once or twice daily. The skin should be thoroughly cleaned and dried before application.
Patient should be advised that 6 to 8 weeks of treatment may be required before a therapeutic effect is observed.
Moisturisers and cosmetics may be used during treatment with Cosmotrin cream but should not be applied to the skin at the same time. Astringent toiletries should be avoided.
Tretinoin gel: Tretinoin gel should be applied once or twice a day, before retiring, to the skin where lesions appear, using enough to cover the entire affected area lightly. The frequency of application can be adjusted to obtain maximum clinical efficacy with minimal erythema and scaling.
If Tretinoin/ Vesanoid gel is applied excessively, no more rapid or better results will be obtained and marked redness, peeling or discomfort may occur. Should this occur accidentally or through over-enthusiastic use, application should be discontinued for few days.
Patience is needed in this treatment, since the therapeutic effects will not usually be observed until after 6-8 weeks of treatment. During the early weeks of treatment, an apparent exacerbation of inflammatory lesions may occur.
Moisturizers and cosmetics may be used during treatment with Tretinoin/ Vesanoid gel but should not be applied to the skin at the same time. The skin should be thoroughly washed before application of Tretinoin gel. Astringent toiletries should be avoided.
Capsule: The recommended dose is 45 mg/m2/day administered as two evenly divided doses until complete remission is documented. Therapy should be discontinued 30 days after achievement of complete remission or after 90 days of treatment, whichever occurs first.
If after initiation of treatment of Tretinoin/ Vesanoid the presence of the translocation is not confirmed by cytogenetics and/or by polymerase chain reaction studies and the patient has not responded to Tretinoin, alternative therapy appropriate for acute myelogenous leukemia should be considered.
Interaction: Particular caution should be exercised in using preparations containing peeling agents (i.e. sulfur, resorcinol, benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid).
Use of topical preparations with high concentrations of alcohol, menthol, spices or lime- such as shaving lotions, astringents and perfume- should be avoided, especially during initial therapy.
Contraindications: Tretinoin is contraindicated in patients who are allergic to this drug. It is contraindicated in pregnancy or suspected pregnancy. It is also contraindicated in personal or familial history of cutaneous epithelioma.
Local irritation: The presence of cutaneous irritative signs (e.g. erythema, peeling, pruritus, sunburn, etc.) should prohibit initiation or recommencement of treatment with Tretinoin until the symptoms resolve.
Tretinoin has been reported to cause severe irritation on eczematous skin and should be used with caution in patients with this condition.
Exposure to sunlight: Exposure to sunlight, including ultraviolet sun-lamps, should be avoided or minimised during the use of Tretinoin.
General precaution: Before application of Tretinoin / Vesanoid, areas to be treated should be cleansed thoroughly. Abstain from washing the treated area frequently; twice daily is sufficient. Use of mild soap is recommended. Dry the skin without rubbing.
Avoid contact with eyes, eyelids, nostrils, mouth and mucous membranes. If contact in these areas occurs, careful washing with water is recommended.
