Formulation view Minimalist prescription ointbase using cetyl alcohol and stearic acid to support tretinoin delivery. Lacks complex preservatives or active stacks to prioritize stability and drug efficacy. Strictly for medical use; prohibited for pregnant women and photosensitive individuals. Formulation perspective highlights how the simple structure minimizes active degradation and cross-sensitivity risks, requiring avoidance of simultaneous use with other acids.

Ingredients explained
- Tretinoin
- Tretinoin, Rx 0.025-0.1%; phototoxic/allergenic, contraindicated in pregnancy, no acids, expect early irritation
- Cetyl Alcohol
- Cetyl alcohol for emulsification/thickening; high concentration >10% may irritate.
- Stearic Acid
- Fatty acid emulsifier, white waxy solid; adds slip feel
- Isopropyl Myristate
- Light synthetic ester, fast-drying and non-greasy; high comedogenic risk, limit in acne-prone skin
- Polysorbate 60
- Non-ionic emulsifier and solubilizer for O/W or W/O stability; may cause mild stinging on sensitive skin, typically 1-5%.
- Sorbitan Stearate
- Non-ionic emulsifier for O/W systems; hydrophobic, requires co-emulsifiers, inert at high purity
- Sorbitol
- Polyol humectant with strong hygroscopy; tacky at high levels, pair with occlusives; also a solvent or adjuster.
- Sorbic Acid
- Preservative effective at low pH, often combined with sorbate salts; check regulatory limits
- Disodium Edetate
- Not decoded yet
- Butylhydroxytoluene
- Not decoded yet
- Purified Water
- Deionized or purified water serving as the formulation solvent base; requires protection from microbial contamination, typically constitutes the majority of the formula.
