Unless you have severe, widespread, and scarring acne, The Regimen is normally my suggestion for the most effective acne treatment.

My dosage has been 40 mg for the first month, and then 80 mg for the next three months. I just started my fifth month which is 80 mg again. My cystic acne on my chin has not been cured yet, so my doctor said I'm going to go for a sixth month. Well, I dont want to go on a sixth month because I heard it works best when you stop the drug, and that my dosage seems high enough to stop at a fifth month. Should I listen to my doctor, or should I try convincing him I'm done after the fifth month?

 

BTW: I'm an 18 year old male, 75 kg. After 5 months it will be 144 mg per kg. I feel like this is enough

I would listen to your doctor and take a longer dose, especially if you don't have many side effects.
