Hello everyone,

I just wanted to start my log of by saying hope everyone out there gets better and reach their goal with this treatment.

I am almost done with my second month on claravis I started taking this month 60 mg compare to just 30mg the first month.

I can say I went thru the initial bad breakout the first couple of weeks and until now the acne is kinda what controllable. My derm

Told me I can do facials which I have been doing (2 * a month which has help me as well. The side effects I have are just the basics one

With chapped lips (aquaphor) is the best some dry skin by the side of my lip area haven™t experience joint pains nor depression thankfully

But I have got some rash type on some parts on my skin that I didn™t have before they are like little red rashes that look like tiny scabs and can be

A little itchy after I shower. Anyone have any idea of what this can be and how to cure it I have been using hydrocortisone cream and it feels like

A relieve when I put it on but it doesn™t last much. Should I tell my derma to lower my dosage again? Anyone experience this before an that can help

I would really gladly appreciate it.

Also one more thing I had two drinks this past weekend as I was told I shouldn™t drink but I am only doing it like on a once a month basis do you guys

Think that is fine or should I just stop? Could that make the side effects worse being is not that much alcohol?

If anyone have any opinions or advise I will really take that into consideration as I see where all here for the same reason so we should stick together.

Thank you

rash is most likely accutane induced eczema. Good luck on the rest of your course. As for the drinking, 1 or 2 drinks won't hurt but don't get carried away as accutane is tough on the liver
