Hey hey all you beautiful people Posted Image
After not a very successful journey on Doxitab (doxcycline) I am back to accutane. This time with an even lower dose than before...Which was already a low dose of 10 mg Posted Image Reasons being liver damage and hair loss Posted Image

This time round I am gonna see how low I can go and still have decent results!

So to begin with I am taking a 20mg pill every 4 days. But my goal is to take 10mg every 7 days.

So far I have taken 4 in 2 weeks. Haven't had any side effects yet.

Keep fighting the good fight guyz! Posted Image

does it actually have an effect at this doseage?

I was on 20mg 3 times a week and had to go up to 20mg per day.

No idea. I had great results with taking 20 mg every second day. But had to stop because of side effects.

Didn't even know you could go on such a low dosage.. But if you already have liver damage, is it a good idea to take accutane again?
Hope everything goes well, i'm interested to see if this is going to work :)

Lolz, I am :D

To be honest its the last thing I wanted to go back to but nothing else works. I've been on a strict diet for the last year, tried two antibiotics in the last 8 months. Its really my last option on the table, but I don't want to give up! I want to feel confident again...plus cysts hurt :D

How long have you been on it? Did you suffer from any effects? My acne only got better by month 3. I also took 20mg a week for like 2 weeks but then slowly built it up to 20mg every second day.

Howdy all you awesome people!

I've taken 33 20 mg pills now in the last 2 and a half months.

No effects wats so ever! No seriously, no dry lips, no dry eyes and still getting acne.

Anybody else been on low dose Accutane? When do you start feeling the effects Posted Image

I've also started to take omega 3 and 6 cos I read it helps with absorption.
