What is Acitretin?

Acitretin is a member of the antipsoriatics drug class and is commonly used for pityriasis rubra pilaris or severe psoriasis. Acitretin is a retinoid, which is a form of vitamin A and works by stopping excessive growth and thickening of skin cells. The thickening is called keratinization and occurs due to a buildup of a protein called keratin in the cells.

Additionally, people (male or females) should not donate blood while taking Acitretin and for at least 3 years after the last dose. If donated blood is given to pregnant women, it can result in birth defects.
