Branchos MemberMember0(@branchos) Posted : 09/03/2014 3:28 am Taking about 40 to 60mg a week (20-30 twice a week) and I notice it really prevents breakouts and I get no sides at all Quotedeterminedtowin MemberMember11(@determinedtowin) Posted : 09/03/2014 8:20 am I take 20mg every Monday and it really prevents breakouts.
