What is Supatret

Supatret gel .04 contains Tretinoin, which is a form of vitamin A.

It is used to treat acne, a common skin problem that arises when skin pores become clogged, resulting in blackheads, whiteheads, and pimples, by regulating oil production in the skin.

It also helps to smooth rough facial skin and reduces the appearance of facial wrinkles.

This prescription-based medicine is FDA-approved and can only be purchased with a doctor's recommendation. 

Sun Pharmaceutical is the leading pharmaceutical company that manufactures Supatret gel. 

What is Supatret used for

Supatret gel .04 is prescribed for treating acne and reducing fine lines. 

Acne

Acne is a skin disorder when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, resulting in blackheads, whiteheads, and pimples.

How does Supatret work
