I haven't started accutane yet, but I have been taking zinc and it's been helping keep my acne at bay.

 

Btw, if you get constant breakouts due to severely oily skin like me, zinc has helped me quite a bit. But accutane is the only thing that will target the oiliness issue so I'm be taking a very small dosage (10 mg a day), so anyone know if it'll be ok to still take zinc (30-50 mg a day) once I'm on accutane?

Don't mix too many things... I'm on Zinc (60mg a day), I'm not taking accutane.

Accutane is a strong med, it doesn't need anything else to work good
