This study shows that community residents are not satisfactorily aware of the proper use and jeopardies of isotretinoin. Therefore, greater consideration ought to be dedicated to augment the safe use of isotretinoin. We recommend the implementation of tools to enhance the safe use of isotretinoin and the imposition of more effective regulations to limit nonprescribed isotretinoin dispensing in Saudi Arabia.
