Always finish prescribed course

I'm currently on my second round of antibiotics (doxycycline) for my moderate cystic acne. But I'm looking to start Accutane in a week. My skin looks a lot better than usual because of the antibiotics. So I'm worried the dermatologist will not prescibe me the right amount of Accutane because the antibiotics are taking care of my skin at the moment. When I stopped taking the antibiotics my skin broke out so much! Just a day after I stopped taking them. Should I finish my current course of antibiotics or stop before I go to the dermatologist so he can see how bad my acne can be?
Thanks

Do yourself a favour and don't take accutane.The PIL is being up-dated soon to include erectile dysfunction and low libido.
These side effects may or may not been permanent but certainly victims are still suffering 20 years later.
There were 20 suicides between 2012 and 2014 in the UK alone - almost 1 per months.
Many suicides are years post accutane - it is now accepted by the regulateos that stopping the medication is not enough to
stop the side effects.
So many suicides that might be accutane related are not even reported as such because no one believes that any medication can affect you years later.

Accutane is a very last resort for severe cystic acne. If your is moderate you should not be given accutane.
