“…Isotretinoin is a fat-soluble compound that can easily cross the blood-brain barrier. Intracellular retinoid receptors may interfere with the natural functioning of the central nervous system by affecting the dopaminergic-serotonergic system, hippocampal neurogenesis processes, and the frontal-orbital activity 4 . A study on positron emission tomography of patients with acne under isotretinoin medication showed decreased orbitofrontal cortical activity linked to the drug 10 .…”

“…Azoulay et al 13 conducted a study and reported that patients receiving isotretinoin tend to be 2.68 times more frequently depressed than individuals in the healthy population. In addition, it has previously been reported that between 1989 and 2003, of the 216 medication-related suicides by the individuals younger than 18 years old, 33% (72) were under isotretinoin medication 4 . This eventually led the FDA to include isotretinoin in the list of medications associated with depression.…”

“…However, numerous authors have suggested either no association with depression, or instead an amelioration of depressive or anxious symptoms with treatment, prompting suggestions that idiosyncratically susceptible patients may exist, or that individuals with a family history or personal history of mental illness may be susceptible. 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 …”

“…Bu nörotransmitterler uyku ve uyanıklık siklusunun düzenlenmesinde rol alır ve dolayısıyla izotretinoinin uyku üzerine etkileri olabilir (8). İzotretinoin tedavisi alanlarda uyku bozukluklarını da içeren duygu durum bozuklukları görülebilmektedir (9). Literatürde AV'li hastalarda izotretinoin tedavisinin yaşam kalitesine olan etkisine yönelik yapılan birçok çalışma bulunmasına rağmen; uyku kalitesi ve uyku bozuklukları üzerine yapılan çalışmalar oldukça sınırlıdır.…”
