Prescribed Tretiva 10mg by my dermatolog

2019-10-12 03:20:09
I have been on this medicines for about 40 Days now. However I am experiencing dry lips for which my doctor said that apply moisturizer. I am also having body pain and tend to be tired always. I have realised that as soon as I take my dose , I tend to feel drowsy and fall asleep . Is it the medicine? Currently I am on this medication only. PS: I am a student and my routine includes studying long hours at library. That's it 😅
