Well, long story short, I took Ro-Accutane 3 months ago and now I'm on Severe Dry Eyes. I might have other problems like necks/knees pains, hair loss, anxiety but they are minors and go unnoticeable with the damage that happened to my eyes (especially that I work with computers).
I wanted to start this thread so that each users (who wants to contribute) specify the amount of ro-accutane (or any other brands) that he took and the side effects that happened to him.
I'll start
Duration: 3.6 months
Daily Dose: 30mg
Total: around 3,300mg
Weight: 61kg
Age: 22
Time since stopping: 3 months
Current consequences:
- Severe, paralysing and painful dry eyes
- Some hair loss and hair quality damage
- Some joints/morning pains but it's minor and not sure if caused by accutane
- Anxiety/depression (lots better than when I was on medication).
Looking for your contributions.
Roaccutane:

I was lucky not to have any lasting consequences, as soon as I finished my treatment all the side effects vanished.
I had minor, common side effects like: dry sking, very dry lips, sore muscles, loss of energy
