1. I know that Acutane, Finasteride, Deca are some kind of derrivatives of this Vitamin. And this create huge problem for users of this drugs. It can strictly influence the work of our brain and pituitary (As every single vitamin and mineral). This link will might slightly explain why, it's one of factors in intracranial hypotension, which in result at least change shape of your pituitary, and this change result in hormone output. Gbold also mention, why not to take nolvadex. It can be also a culprit of it:


... ,,What are the Risk Factors for Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension?
There are certain conditions that predispose to the development of intracranial hypertension. These include
Obesity
Intake of certain medication namely, growth hormone, tetracycline, excess vitamin A, oral contraceptives, steroids, isotretinoin, lithium, nitrofurantoin, phenytoin sulfa drugs, minocycline, Tamoxifen, nalidixic acid, thyroid replacement, and some chemotherapeutic drugs''

2. ,,Medical Treatment

Initially, if there is no vision loss, medications are prescribed to reduce the cerebrospinal fluid pressure within the skull.
This is done by either by draining out excess fluid through diuretics or by reducing the production of CSF by carbonic anhydrase inhibitors - WHICH IN FACT IS Acetazolamide''
