madcat 0 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Hi,I have a light form of acne but i would be very pleases to finally get ride of it. If have been 6 months on a very low dosis of roaccutane (20 mg per week), and 3,5 months ago i decided to stop with it because i was afraid of the side effects. Now i wonder if the are any special things i should be aware of starting the CSR as ex-roaccuntane user? Because the notice says something about not using chemical skin removing products 6 months after stopping with the roaccutane cure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brandolynn 287 Share Posted October 13, 2006 You should probably check with your derm on this, but I've seen several people who start topicals right after they quit Accutane, as a preventative. Mostly Retin-A is prescribed these days to follow an Accutane course. But just to be on the safe side, why not put in a call to your derm and ask if it is okay now to use some benzoyl peroxide.

mourinho 0 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Did some people used Benzoyl Peroxide after being on roaccutane? Feedback would be appreciate. i have been on tane twice, the 1st time for 4 months and the second 3 on a very low dosage. I dont think the derm will give me 6 months on full dosage because my acne is not severe. but it has come back both times, the 1st time it took a year and the second a few months. both times i started using diffren when it came back it did a good job but then the spots i got from using diffren were massive so i mooved on to bp and b5....
