Hey guys. I just got my dose upped from 10mg to 20mg per day. Can anyone let me know if there is any xtra side effects to increasing dose?

Also is flaxseed oil good to take with accutane? I understand accutane is best absorbed with a high fat meal and flaxseed is pure healthy fats. Also i hear it is good for joints.

Any advice/info would be much appreciated :)

There probably won't be additional side effects resulting from your dose increase, but the side effects you already have might get slightly worse. Time will tell.

Accutane is fat soluble so it should definitely be taken with/after a meal to maximise absorption. Once this is being done, flaxseed/fish oil can be added if desired.
