Consumer:

Like other retinoids, acitretin is a teratogen. The concurrent use of alcohol and acitretin has been associated with the formation of etretinate, a related retinoid drug with a considerably longer half-life (mean: 120 days vs. 49 hours). Alcohol should be avoided during acitretin therapy and for two months after completion of therapy in female patients of child-bearing age, since it may prolong the duration of teratogenic potential of the drug.
