I don't know of anyone will read this but I decided to keep a log of my experience on accutane to help others that are just starting like me or wondering if they should take this 'acne cure'. First of all I'll give you a bit of my acne history. I'm 27 female and have been on many many different medications for acne: differin, minomycin, tetricycline, retin a, the BCP and more. Since none of these worked very well 5 years ago my dermatologist put me on Accutane 30mg a day as i had moderate severe acne and was really affecting me emotionally. I was sick of wearing makeup all the time (I even wore it to bed sometimes so my boyfriend wouldn't see it). The first time it got much worse when I first started taking it. It was the worst my skin had ever been and didn't start improving till the 4th month. I think I was only on it for 5 months but by the end my skin was perfect and smooth it had never looked better. It started to come back a couple months after stopping but now it's only mild to moderate so now im on my second course of 30mg a day and hoping it stays gone this time! I don't kow whay it came back. 30 mg seems low compared to what many people are taking? I'm on day 8 and so far so good. I've got a few more than usual but nothing I can't handle! I don't have any side effects yet but ive been moisturising from the start and using lip balm constantly. Anyway this is getting a bit long
