dutch 0 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Hello everybody,I've been on Accutane for 14 weeks now. Fist 2 weeks 20 mg/day, after that 6 weeks 40 mg/day, and after that 80 mg/day. So now i'm on 6 weeks 80 mg/day and it's still nog working. I have mild/moderate acne.If you high up your dose, will it still take the normal time (2 months or so) before it will work, or will it work faster???Do you think it can still work for me??

Smoothbeamin 0 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Of course a higher dose will work faster. If I start at 40 and you at 20 and we have exact same acne conditions, I will clear sooner, but have more side effects too. Six of one, Half dozen of the other.

BenKweller 2 Share Posted July 12, 2004 A higher dose can also damage your body in really bad ways. Remember how drastic Accutane is. Do NOT mess with your medication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
