This is my first day on the drug accutane. I'm 19 years old male and been fighting to get on the drug for a couple of years now. My acne is not particularly severe, like i have red marks on my cheeks and occasionally get whiteheads around my mouth and forehead, but it has been so persistent that it is the only real option. I weigh around 70 kg and am on a 30 mg dose which i thought was quite low reading other blogs, but i trust the doctor  I'll try and keep you updated on any changes that i experience in my acne and any side effects. Obviously no change today, but i'll hopefully see a few changes in the next few weeks :/
