Just wanted to update you guys..

I've been on accutane for about 50 days now.

I'm 5'10, 175 lbs, and I'm on two pills of 40mg a day.

Side effects.. lips are bad.. face isn't bad, only dry spots are the actual pimples when I have them, LOWER BACK IS HORRIBLE. Not depressed at all, though.

Now, the positive. My face is really smooth, and basically spotless. A few redmarks here and there, but I don't mind them at all. No cysts, not one whitehead. Although, my back is much worse, where there are a few whiteheads (I never used to get them on my back either).

Do you know if it takes longer for your back to clear up with the 'tane then your face?

Anyone thinking about this drug, take it from me, its turned my face around so quickly . I had very moderate and consistent acne.
