Summary

This study looks at whether isotretinoin, a common acne medicine, changes how well people can smell. Researchers will test the sense of smell in 54 adults before and after at least 4 weeks of treatment. The goal is to understand if the drug's drying effect on the nose can reduce smell ability.
