Acitreti

[Kat]

I don't remember having an increase in lower back pain while on Acitretin, but since I often have lower back pain it is possible that I did and just didn't associate the two.

I did find this info online:

You should check with your doctor immediately if any of these side effects occur when taking acitretin:
More common •Back pain•bad, unusual, or unpleasant (after) taste•bone or joint pain...

and the list goes on and on.

You might want to check with your pharmacy or doctor for more information. I find warnings can be overstated due to companies wanting to protect themselves but it doesn't hurt to call to find out if that is something to be concerned about.
