Acitretin and training

Medical Q&A [Moderated]
1

Hello,
Is there a relationship, or something I shall expect in terms of training while taking Acitretin (25mg/day) ?
The reason for the prescription is Psoriasis, and I wonder if it’s going to affect training / performance (strength and/or endurance).
Any additional information you think is relevant would, of course, be appreciated also. I’m a bit afraid going into this treatment, and going to another Dermatologist for a second opinion also, anyway.

Thanks!

I would not expect it to impact your strength or endurance performance.

Happy to hear that,
Is there any change needed in training while taking this medication, or continue as usual?

Thanks!

No changes are needed.
