Abstract
Systemic retinoids are an important component of the dermatology treatment armamentarium offering unique therapeutic properties, and are widely used to treat a large spectrum of skin disorders. Rational selection of candidates for treatment, knowledge regarding appropriate and optimal use, awareness of common and uncommon potential adverse reactions, and proper use of clinical and laboratory monitoring can result in effective and safe treatment of several severe skin disorders that impact poorly on the overall health and quality of life of affected patients.
