I am on week 5 of my 5 month course of accutane. 40mg a day. Im a male 219lbs.
the first month, i was taking Amnesteem and within two weeks i had dry lips and dry face with no oil at all. I loved the dry face because i know there was no oil to produce new acne and i was flaky.
Month two comes and i picked up my prescription, and this time they gave me Absorica 40mg once a day.
Ever since starting Absorica, I have slight oily t-zone. Never has this at all with Amnesteem in my first month. Im on day 6 of the Absorica.
I take all my accutane with high fat meal all the time.
Whats up with the oily skin again? Is it Absorica brand? It might be too early to tell but im thinking amnesteem is better.
My side effects so far are dry lips, DID have a very dry face but not anymore, i have left jaw joint pain. Thats it.
Do i need higher dosage? Or back to amnesteem?
