vitamin A and tretinoin are two different substances, and the difference between them is an atom of oxygen

I see
This cream i saw which was branded as. ACNELYSE had tretinoin as an active ingredient at 0.25% I'm getting it then.

Also
Do i need moisturizer with sunscreen or just sunscreen alone would suffice?

its just generic Retin A
you will experience peeling and sensitivity if you never used or used Retinoid of lower strength like Retinol or Retinohydrate

You can
the thing is that you should use Retinoid you can tolerate the best
the general hierarchy looks like this
Tretinoin > Retinohydrate > Retinol > Retinol Esters
If you are fine using Tretinoin off the bat there should be no issues
using Retinol or some lesser retinoid to get used to it is not a bad idea especially for some longer period like 4 weeks
if Retinol is cheap enough for you its worth it as introduction or backup plan
