I've been on 1 40mg accutane pill a day for only 3 days now and today I began to experience extreme dizziness and felt very unstable, it has calmed down a little bit now, but I still feel slighly dizzy. Should I be worried about this? Should I take another pill tonight or wait until I can talk to my doctor? (It is the weekend)
Thanks
Hey ! Completely relate ... I took a 20 mg pill a few days ago and 6 hours later woke up with pretty bad nausea and then got so dizzy i actually lost hearing for a few minutes , didn't faint though almost. Are you on a antibiotic as well? I took erthrymycin too that day and i don't think i drunk enough water
I'm gonna try again tomorrow morning ( i took it at night maybe it's better in the day?) . Make sure you eat a fat soluble meal with it and if the dizziness increases maybe they can lower your dose for a bit.
On my Accutane box it states dizziness can be due to increased pressure of the brain. I would call your doctor to be sure. Especially if you are experiencing the dizziness while following the rules on keeping up with your fluid intake and eating enough.
