Tretinoin - where to get it?

[ilyana]

I'm trying to get back into my beauty routines after falling into severe depression during the pandemic, and how the heck do I find tretinoin these days?

I used to use a product prescribed by my GP, but it seems they no longer make it. I'm devastated because it was great for my skin, got rid of acne, scarring and made me look so much younger. Is there a replacement for this at all? My GP doesn't seem to think so.

I searched on here and saw people recommended a product called Retirides, so I picked up a tube on a recent trip to Spain, but I find it dreadful! It's got perfume in, which triggered such a bad migraine that I was vomiting all night when I used it. Who puts perfume in a prescription skincare product?

Is there any hope of finding a solution?

@ilyana , what was the name of the one you used to use?

Skin + me or dermatica

Dermatica

Dermatica

Skin and me

Over the counter in:
Turkey / Greece / Portugal / Italy / Morroco / India / Mexico

I think it was Isotrex?

What brand do people use? Any you'd recommend (or not!)? The one I used before was a clear gel, and that worked very well for me - creams tend to clog my pores. Is there anything like that?

@stevalnamechanger what would the product name be in those countries eg Portugal? Thanks

Search for any online prescription providers. I get mine from Apostrophe but they only ship within USA. You might find a provider over there or in Europe that ship. I had an online appt to start the prescription and a 3mths to check in

Retirides (Spanish version).

Dermatica

Did you not actually read the OP's post?! 🙄

I use Dermatica. It's a light cream formula but it hasn't clogged my pores at all. I've been using it for over a year now and it's made a huge difference.

Greece no longer sells tret.

I just bought it otc in Malta but it wasn't as cheap as Greek prices, £15 instead of £4. I just asked for tretinoin.

I do Andorra pharmacy

I've just pm'd you where I get mine from.

I use Dermatica as easy to change dosage

tretinoincream.co They always deliver within 2 days via FedEx.

I am getting it from skinorac and it's good so far in terms of pricing and delivery.
