Isotretinoin-induced pancreatitis: is it time to definitely recognize it: a case report

This is the 25th case described in the literature, but the first with a positive rechallenge on two occasions. This case therefore implies that isotretinoin should definitely be considered a class 1 toxic drug for the pancreas and should be incriminated in acute pancreatitis in patients treated with this drug.

Abstract

This is the 25th case described in the literature, but the first with a positive rechallenge on two occasions. This case therefore implies that isotretinoin should definitely be considered a class 1 toxic drug for the pancreas and should be incriminated in acute pancreatitis in patients treated with this drug.
