Ok so here is the predicament I am in, I went to a dermatologist that I barely know and he prescribed me Clindoxyl and Stievea A cream for a month. The Clindoxyl and Stievea A cream did not do much in fact they made my face worse. So I went back to my derm and he decided to prescribe me with 10mg of Accutane and 40mg of Doxycycline for 2 weeks. I was reading online that those two medications mixed together can cause brain tumours! This is not my first time taking Accutane but this is my first time taking Accutane and Doxycycline together.

OMG is your derm crazy? accutane can not be taken together with doxycyline...it says on drugs.com that Using doxycycline together with ISOtretinoin is not recommended. Combining these medications may increase the risk of a rare but potentially serious condition caused by increased pressure in the brain.

I'm calling the derm today and getting off the doxycycline this is the 5th day of taking them together and I have been getting very bad headaches.
