The Role of Serum Lipids in Predicting Suicidal Ideation in Isotretinoin Therapy for Acne.

The present study findings revealed that serum lipid levels could be associated with psychiatric side effects in patients under ITT treatment. But, this must not be the only way to detect the risk when we consider that serum lipid levels that have been associated with suicidal ideation, depression, and several psychiatric diseases have the potential to be an important indicator. In this context, our preliminary results open the doors to a new perspective in this regard, using the concept of blood lipid optimization. These findings need to be considered preliminary and supported by large samples.
