Accutane isn't working

I've been taking accutane for 1year and 3 months now and was just wondering if anyone elses course has been this long?

Initially I was on 20mg for around a month, then 40mg for around 4months before moving up to 60mg. I weigh 60kg and so 60mg was the highest I was supposed to have, however it still wasn't working and so my dermatologist put me on 70mg. I was then recommended by another dermatologist to start taking spironolactone as well and drop my accutane dose back to 60 which I have done for the past 3 months.

I always take accutane with a high in fat meal and don't know why it isn't working. Any suggestions?

no idea man, I'mreally sorry it's not working out for you. Best thing to do is maybe talk to your derm, or consider revising your daily routine and see if you can improve it in some way?

Hope it get's better for you pal,
Chris
