Hi Sarah!! I just TODAY had my first blood test to start accutane and now it's the 30 day waiting period before starting. Thanks for the log, it really helps me to feel more prepared for what's ahead!...

I feel the same way your not alone. I had gone on accutane back in high school and have only had small breakouts until just the past 3 months. I've started getting cystic acne which was completely new...

I had the same exact thing happen to me. I had gone all summer with clear skin until July came and my face broke out worse than it ever has. Just like yours I got the cystic acne which started around ...

Keep up on the spiro. It has been a dream for my skin. I also took accutane and started to break out again three months after my course. I hopped on spiro at the first sign of acne returning and it cl...

So I've now been on spironolactone for almost 2 months now and the worst has gone I think. The only breakout I have is on my right cheek around the cheekbone. Does anybody have any suggestions for tre...

I'm trying! It's hard when it had started out at one breakout around the chin and now it's my whole face with clogged pores. I have never had acne this bad and I feel like it just looks worse when I t...

So I posted on here last month, I've now been on spironolactone for a month and 1 week. I've been using cetaphil just like my dermatologist recommended and my skin has only gotten rougher and bumpier....

Yeah I'm definitely going too. I'm just still kind of upset she didn't the last visit I had because she said the aczone would help although I told her I was still breaking out. With the breakouts I'm ...

Sumisee that's great they're starting to dry up and it's going better your second round. I've been on 100 mg for a month now and I feel like its still just been getting worse day by day. I see a new o...

Yupp and that's why I'm kind of unsure about my derm. It's been driving me crazy not using any type of toner because I feel like with this hormonal breakout I'm also getting more clogged pores which d...

That's good the toner helped you! I asked my derm about getting toner right after I had gotten some and she said it could be the worst thing for your skin. I thought that was odd because every time I ...

Would you suggest any antibiotics? Or is it just having to wait it out

You're right I need to be patient. My derm was the one who suggested me to bump it up to 100 so I hope it's not too much for me. If this is hormonal I'm just not use to this type of breakout, it' almo...

I wish my skin would get use to it. It's just been getting more inflamed and I went to the docs when I had a large cyst and got a cortisone shot and then went back again and she said since its still b...

I've been on spirolactone for almost a month now and my face breakout has been worse than ever. I have cystic acne all around my jawline with some white heads and feels inflamed. I'm using cetaphil an...

Is there a certain cleanser and moisturizer anybody suggests? I'm using cetaphil which I've never used before so idk if its helping at all or if there's anything that can help with the process

Thank you for that post! It was really helpful in seeing how its going to get worse before getting better. I'm 22 and started spirolactone at the beginning of the month when I just had one little brea...

I've been taking 100 mg. I just feel like it's been getting worse and most people said it only took 2 weeks for it to start going down and looking better.

I'm 22 and just started on the spirolactone almost a month now. My acne was moderate when I started but now I feel like my face has completely flared up since being on it? Is this normal? I'm getting...
