I just started month three of accutane. Month 1 was 30mg a day, month 2 went up to 40mg a day, now month 3 I'm at 60mg a day.
I had moderate cystic acne when I started. But now my whole face is covered in cysts and it is incredibly painful. Anyone else? I'm almost half way done with treatment and I'm starting to lose hope. Especially since I'm worse off from when I started.
Help?
This is completely normal almost everyone gets a initial breakout from accutane the first few weeks that last a while depending on how high your dosage is. Dont quit though it will start clearing up especially sense you are raising your dosage. Every time you raise the dosage your skin will purge a bit until it gets everything out. 60mg is a good dosage though so you should she good results soon!
