so after 10 years of struggling with acne and 4 years of thinking of starting accutane i funally decided to start it... Ive been prescribed 20mg in the morning and 10
in the evenig.
Its my day ten and i already feel it working... The wrong way. Well i mean i know with accutane it might get worse before it gets better but i wasnt expecting it for myself.
my acne got really bad during these 10 days and i have alot of side effects like
1) dry lips(dont care)
2) dry eyes (not all the time)
3) much more breakouts and they are more painful then usually
4) a bit weird side effect but i guess im not alone because i found similar reports in google.. So i got my urethra red, i guess it dries out the penis aswell
5) ear pain. Not sure if its connected but ive never had ear pain before

thats it for the first 10 days. Im gonna be updating. Hope sb finds this interesting and helpful
btw im alex, 22 years

2 weeks on accutane now update:

its fu**ing bad. I had alot of huge breakouts and huge bumps on both my face and back
i have this very big pimple on my eyebrow that makes my eye swollen, i cant even go out without wearing shades
no dry sking yet unfortunately, just dry lips

i wasnt really thinking of stopping it , im just giving it a tty. It might still get better but to be honest i lost the hope. It just made my skin worse as for now

Sounds normal. Stick with it. Most of us see improvement after 3rd month!!!

After of 2 months taking this pousin and not seeing real noticable results i decided to stop

not worth it

evryone saying its ok and its gonna work just continue taking it is complete bullshit

and the fact that most ppl get acne again after stopping accutane evrn if it helps them is still a fact.

 

The advise from my expirience would be dont try to fool urself. Give it a try but if it doesnt work like miracle after 1 month then dont even bother. Just stop it
