Acitretin experience (Hair changes)

Hello All, I took acitretin for a year. 20mg daily I took. Side effects initially were dry skin, very dry inside nose, very dry lips which would sometimes crack if I laughed and stretched my mouth wider than usual. I must also point out I also suffer from adult acne so I am also prone to spots on the face. Acitretin actually completely stopped my acne which was a very pleasant side effect. The other symptoms were for me easily manageable, lip balms helped a lot I just kept one in my pocket at all times. The dry inner nose I got used to quickly, some slight tenderness there was all it manifested in. The acitretin helped my psoriasis greatly, in more or less stopped new plaques forming. I was left with large red patches of skin that faded over the year especially when I used betnovate in conjunction. The reason I have shared my experiences is that I came across a side effect that is not mentioned in any of the leaflets I read before taking the medicine. I did read that hair loss was a possibility, and after the year I began to notice I could see my scalp quite visibly when my hair was wet which was quite a shock, however I have naturally straight to slightly wavy hair, after about 10 months on acitretin my hair became really curly, like almost Afro curly?? I have now discontinued the acitretin as the changes to my hair where to dramatic and scary, I’ve been off them 3 weeks and am hoping my hair goes back to normal, my dermatologist said this was a very uncommon side effect but it has been noted on occasion. He said it should return to normal. Good luck in your continued fight with psoriasis my friends, I know as you do it’s bloody awful.
