Epuris

How is this medication used?

Epuris should be taken exactly as prescribed by a healthcare provider. It is usually taken with a meal once or twice a day. The dosage and length of the treatment are based on the patient's condition and response to therapy. It is important to swallow the capsules whole and not to chew or crush them.

What are the possible side effects?

Common side effects of Epuris include dry skin, chapped lips, dry eyes, or dry nose that may lead to nosebleeds. More serious side effects can include severe stomach pain, chest pain, vision problems, or mental health changes such as depression or thoughts of suicide. Patients should report any side effects to their healthcare provider.

What are the potential interactions?

Epuris can interact with other medications, including vitamin A supplements, tetracycline antibiotics, and some seizure medications. Using other acne medications or skin treatments while on Epuris can increase the risk of skin irritation. Alcohol consumption should be limited due to the increased risk of liver problems. It is crucial to inform healthcare providers about all medications and supplements being taken to avoid potential interactions.
