I have been taking 10 mg daily of Epuris (different brand of Isotretinoin) for 8 months and have 30 more pills left before my next appointment with my dermatologist in June. I tried Epuris about a year and a half ago and did 1 month of 10 mg daily, 1 month of 20 mg daily and then maybe a week (if that) of 40 mg daily before I found the side effects too much. Im just under 56kg so after I finish this last pack my cumulative dose will only be about 64 mg/kg when some posts I've read recommend 120-150 mg/kg for lasting results. I just read an article saying these numbers aren't really that accurate anyway. I just want to know from other's experience if this amount should be enough to have any kind of lasting results. I really don't want to be on Epuris for another year but also don't want my acne to come back! Compared to other accutane users my acne was very minor. I would get the odd cystic pimple and normal breakouts but then right before I started Epuris (which is why I went on it in the first place) I had a very bad breakout on my face and all down my back which was not my normal. I don't have any scarring other than a few dark spots but I suffer from rosacea so they kind of blend in with that issue! My skin is now clear and I will occasionally get tiny little spots that clear up in a day anyway. I'm hoping at my next appointment I can stop Epuris and maybe get a topical prescription to maintain the results. Any experience with this would help! 
Hi!
I was on a 20mg dose of accutane a few years ago. My acne was quite bad before and especially during the treatment so it took a little over a year before I could come off it. Unfortunately the results didn't last for me and is still a problem, but for most people it seems to work wonders! I think stay away from the high dose and bad side effects, even if it means you have to stay on the drug for longer.
Hey, my skin is exactly like yours. I wanna know about your experience with 10mg a day for 8months since i am also going to low dose on accutane. How was the first month like? Note that I don't get cysts usually now I just get oily skin and sometimes pimples that hurt but when they come to head they become white(gross ik sorry) and then they go after 2 weeks but they are not common now but I do get them in 1 or two months and its quit frustrating so I wanna control my oil and acne with low dose accutane. Also I weight 80kg so i dont think I will get much side effects if i go on accutane for six months on 10mg a day and after 10mg a week for a year. There are people who have done low dosed accutane course for years.
