Hi, Im Soha and im 18 years old
i've been struggling with acne since i was about 11 years old till today, i've tried every face wash to every antibiotic and nothing has worked , So i've decided to take Accutane
im on my 39th day of taking the drug, and all i have been noticing is that my skin is getting way worse than it ever was before , and is not getting better!
What should i do? It's very frustrating! Should i stop it? Or decrease/ Increase the dosage?
thanks
Don't worry. You're only a little over a month in. Most people don't start seeing improvements until the 3rd month, and their acne usually gets worse before it gets better as it is bringing everything to the surface of your skin. Just see what your doc says at the next appointment. Do not increase or decrease anything without the doctor's approval - accutane isn't something to mess with.
