Almost 3 weeks ago now I started Claravis, generic accutane for bad arm and back acne. My first week it seemed I didn't get a single new spot and had no side effects.
Middle of the second week suddenly I started to breakout and got a boil on my left forearm (which has happened before) but I have been using tea tree on it and it is almost gone. My skin on my face was dry after showering but after putting some cera ve moisturizer on it my face wouldn't be dry again until my next shower.
Now it is about to beweek three, still breaking out, for he past two days it has been more like one new spot a day though rather than 4 or 5. I also noticed my face is no longer dry after showering. No chapped lips. Worried maybe my pills aren't working?
Wondering how yourfirst month experience went or if it's normal to experience not any side effects, or at least very minimal,3 weeks in. I'm on 40mg daily and I'm 185-190 pounds.
Marko,
Thanks for commenting on my thread! Seems like we're going through the same issue. I'm also 190 lbs on 40mg of Claravis per day. Also used to be a big gym enthusiast but since I was told that sweating makes this crap worse, I have watched all my gains dry up. It's super discouraging and I haven't been at gym in at least 2 years.
I wish you well buddy. Keep us posted with your progress.
I went the whole course with no side effects aside from dryness around my mouth.
you will still breakout for, most likely, a number of months before you clear - that's unfortunately just the way it works. It took me about five months before I cleared. Just stick it through and be patient and happy with minimal side effects - it doesn't mean it's not working, just that you're lucky
