I will be keeping an update about how my face looks weekly, all the symptoms I might begin to suffer while on this medication and so on. Since today is basically my 23rd day on it I will give you a quick heads up of my experience so far. On my first month Im taking 40mg. First week my face looked really bad, but i didn't suffer from ANY side effects (not even the dry lips). On the second week things started to change a bit, I was still breaking out but definetely not like the first week, but my lips were getting a little drier and so did my skin. After this third week my skin is beginning to peel a lot. My lips bled because they got really realy really dried so I had to put on Chapstick and I felt my skin even drier. Haven't had any back or mood swings so far. And today when I woke up I noticed that my hands are also beginning to peel (sign that I have to moisturize them!!!). Tomorrow will be my 24th day. I will keep you updated of how things go on 1 week; but so far I have a good feeling about the end result of this treatment.
Today is the end of day 30, hence I will be going to my doctor tomorrow so he can send me a higher dose. Side effects, none so far besides my lips being drier... Maybe a little bit of exhaustion but not too bad. My face looks really red but i don't have any active or huge cysts going on. My chest and back are 85% clear, which is odd due that I'm used to breaking out around those areas ALL THE TIME. And also now that I remember my face was actually at its WORST the first two weeks I started Accutate, it has certainly healed a bit. Next week I will continue on with my update.
Thank You and wish me luck
