Whats Wrong, Why Isn't Accutane Working?

Hopefully someone can help, because my Derm seems to keep giving me the same "it'll get better with time" answer.

So, I have been on accutane for about a month and a half now, and I have nearly all the side effects assoicated with it except dry skin and dry lips. Is this normal? shouldn't I have experienced dry skin and lips by now? Is it working? Has anyone else not experienced dryness after 6 weeks?

Please let me know. Thanks

What is your dose? Everyone reacts to Tane differently but a lot of people including myself saw

results at about the second month, then drastic results at about the third month.

Again... a lot is going to do with how much your taking and how your body responds to it.

Ok, well thats encouraging then, thanks. I was on 80m a day for about 2 weeks, but I couldn't handle the sides effects, so I'm back down to 60m a day.
