What is the iPLEDGE program and how does it function?

To mitigate this risk, the drug is only available through a restricted distribution program called iPLEDGE. Women of childbearing potential must test negative for pregnancy before starting the medication and again each month during treatment. They are also required to use two effective forms of birth control simultaneously while taking Isotretinoin and for a period after stopping. Detailed information about the iPLEDGE program is available at www.ipledgeprogram.com or by calling 1-866-495-0654. Your doctor or pharmacist can provide specific medical advice regarding pregnancy prevention, potential side effects, and drug interactions related to Isotretinoin.
