Assessment of auditory function and lipid levels in patients receiving oral isotretinoin (13-cis retinoid) therapy for acne vulgaris.
Conclusions: According to our study findings, isotretinoin did not cause worsening of the bilateral hearing threshold, but increased blood lipid levels. There is no need for follow-up auditory functions in routine practice during therapy, but blood lipid levels should be monitored.
