PostTaneNnotClear 0 Share Posted March 13, 2007 I have been through 2 courses of accutane, the last one I finished 10 months ago. I was clear for about 5 months before I started having mild breakouts. I can handle the mild breakouts, but my acne has been getting worse and this week I have 2 new huge cysts on my face. Anyone else have the same problem???? I want to scream and rip my face off, just when my scars were healing from tane....i'm breaking out again. I have been using benza clin which worked for me in the past but my acne is getting worse. I want to try antibiotics but i know I won't be able to tan if I do that.

Hultkrantz 0 Share Posted March 15, 2007 its not true that you cannot tan while on an antibiotic. But some antibiotics can cause sun sensivity (e.g tetralysal) but theres other a.b too.Have you tried using a topical reitnoid post tane to maintenance skin?best luck Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mm8 0 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Been off it for less than two weeks and are getting pimples. It never cleared me. It's a myth Accutane clear acne. A fucking joke. Those derms gotta have the simpliest work on earth...prescribe (push a button on a computer and sign a piece of paper) some expensive shit that does nothing but harm and cashing in their monster salarys...If I, or any other person, had shown the same results as my derm has done at work I would have been fired a 100 times by now. Fuck off.How many million dollars can a U.S. citizen sue a derm/Roche on for destrying his/her skin? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
