Also, is cetaphil bar soap ok to use while on accutane? Ive been using it for awhile but don't know if i should switch to dove bar soap like the pamphlet the dermo gave me reccomends.

Yes it helps with dryness and seems to have helped lessen the reddening of my face. I take 800IU a day.

Agreed, and also add 1 - 1000mg fish oil capsule 3 times a day and 1 - 1000mg evening primrose capsule 3 times per day. I take 1 of each with breakfast lunch and dinner. Water, water, and more water.

I heard usin Vitamin E with no fillers or preservatives is what I should do. And is 800mg a day the right dose? Also 3000mg of fish oil sounds a bit high. Should I try this amount?

That is what I take and it works great along with the Primrose oil. Hydrates skin and helps with inflamation.

Day 6 of Accutane, have been taking Vitamin E and Primrose oil...have had MINIMAL dryness...meaning that if I wasn't on accutane I probably wouldn't even have noticed and instead just put on some extra lip balm. I think its the supplements which are helping.

Does vitamin e help with scars for people not on accutsne?
