So, I'm 17 and yesterday started Accutane (20 mg). Is there any chance that it will stump my growth? I certainly wouldn't want to stay my height (1.72) for the rest of my life, so,... Should I really do accutane? What have your experiences been with it? Also, I'm applying Dapsone Topical at night and Erythromycin at noon... And I read somewhere that Dapsone IS too a quite strong medication on its own... So, that's about it. Thank you.

I would stop all the topicals while on accutane, and/ or follow your derm's suggestion. I don't think accutane will stunt your growth.
