Anyone else experiencing this? Is it normal?

[Renn17]

I had this, I think it might be to do with protein or fat being in the urine. I think it's listed as one of the more common side-effects of accutane

Ok thanks! I thought it might make sense, but I wanted to double check because if not, then I'd be alarmed.

Does anyone know how to reduce this side effect at all? I'm figuring drinking more water on a regular basis might improve it but is there anything else I can do?

its just a hydration issue. drink as much water as you can,,, this is normal without being on accutane, but accutane really dries you out to put it simply, drink more water and youll be good.. im on accutane now, and taking a supplement called creatine wchich also requires a lot of water to be consumed daily, and if i dont get at least 2 liters in me im yellow and cloudy too. but normally it comes out clear as water

Sweet, thanks! I have noticed a big difference with the water increase, and also that coffee makes it a lot worse. So this all makes sense!

I think this or some sort of side effect. Your urine can do this taking a multi vitamin. Usually goes gold or cloudy and gold.
