Day 71 - I've been down on 20 mg a day for the last week or so. I like the 20 mg a lot better, I can actually notice a difference in how I feel on a lower dose. It could all be in my head. I'm still j...

Day 68 - I am back down to 20 mg a day, which I'm taking as a 40mg tablet once every other day. I don't notice too much change from the side effects by dropping down my dose. I think my skin is less d...

Thanks for your response, hair loss does run in my family, but its very minimal, my dad is 55 and still has hair, its very thin, but its there. So premature balding is not in my family. I know almost ...

Not true. These bumps are one of the most common side effect and will go away with good moisturizing and should stay away after you get off accutane.

Im in month 3 of my accutane journey and I have just recently noticed some severe thinning of my hair. The top of my head is much thinner than it used to be and my hair like is starting to thin out. M...

I had chest pain as well, doc said it is probably acid reflux, which I guess is fairly common. It is a dull pain, not sharp like heart burn, he said that was normal. I have the same plugs that come ou...

Day 55 - like most of the logs I have read on here, they get kind of sparse around the 2 month mark. That is the case for my log as well, the reason being is because the side effects don't change. I s...
