Side effects of isotretinoin

2017-10-30 12:57:31
I've been taking isotretinoin 20mg (sotret) for acne vulgaris and Post inflammatory marks, since 2months. I'm now observing some hyperpigmentation on my fingers and feeling bit tanned without even any sun exposure. Is this due to isotretinoin. If yes? What can I do? Using soaps containing Kojic acid will help?
