The changes of accutane are typically permanent and irreversible (although sebum production will usually return to almost pre-treatment levels once you stop). I believe that you are thinking of antibi...

Okay mr Roche advocate- you've been a member of acne.org since 2004 but you don't have acne? You are touting that you are self medicating with accutane and suggesting others do the same? You come on a...

sounds like Gonorrhea. Certainly it's not a side effect of Accutane. Where in the literature or the countless studies that have been done on accutane is this listed as a possible side effect?

The petition has less than 400 signature thus far and yet in the text it claims that over 14 million people worldwide have taken Accutane. If the side effects were truly as bad as they're claiming, yo...

yeah, the explosion of blackheads is normal. This should subside in the next month or so. Increasing the dosage will make your side effects more pronounced so I'm not sure why you'd be eager for your ...

I would go on low dose accutane. Should clear you right up with minimal side effects. Nothing else is nearly as effective as you've discovered already with your extensive treatment history.

I can get 5 mg pills too. There's no risk buying online if you know where to go. I will make a thread one day showing the pills I've purchased online. 4 x 20 vs 10x7 shouldn't really matter. I would...

no, this is not something worth worrying about and will have no real impact on your treatment. Accutane is really about cumulative dosage so you will have an insignificantly lower cumulative dose now....

My Tests : LH - 6.6 Prolactin - 222 TSH - 1.15 Testosteron total - 19.09 Someone showed me this website, where there are shown the normal testosteron levels It seems mine is much much lower than i...

For a few years I used a very simple and inexpensive gel cleanser and I scented non comedogenic lotion from a drug store. it is true that the whole idea of non-comedogenic lotions is highly flawed. ...

Should be roughly the same since isotretinoin has an elimination half-life of 21 hours. Still, it would probably be somewhat preferably to be on 10 mg a day since your lips will probably dry out more ...

I was reading and it seems like all these doctors are claiming that accutane delays wound healing and increases risk of scarring. All I could find to support this in the literature were old case re...

I use Cetaphil Moisturizing cream at night and Olay Complete Sensitive during the morning as it has SPF 15. I have zero pimples and a few clogged pores. I am using accutane primarily to have healthier...

Again 10 mg should be sufficient and sides and IB will be worse with 20. Both will work however. If you just have mild or moderate acne, 10 mg should be fine. Even if you plan on 20, I would definitel...

Low dose seems to work for seborrheic dermatitis. 20 mg per day would be overkill I think as 10 mg or even lower drastically reduces sebaceous gland size and sebum output. There's no need for a hig...

The terms are not strictly defined and their definition has changed over time as the administration practices of accutane have evolved. Standard dose for many years was 1 mg/kg and this was followed ...

Here is a review of low dose therapy for acne acne.pdf acne.pdf

it's really a spectrum when it comes to accutane remission. It's not like you suddenly cross the 120 mg/kg threshold and your chances of lasting remission are all of a sudden dramatically improved. 10...

accutane would be of great benefit to you. If your doctor refuses to prescribe it to you, then I would see another dermatologist. Alternatively, if you live in America you can very easily order it onl...

That's not enough vitamin A to have any effect. If you were eating polar bear liver and downing it with carrot juice, then you might have a problem with too much Vitamin A. One serving of sweet potato...

I just thought I would provide this article to the rest of you guys who are interested in using low dose isotretinoin to treat mild acne or in general to make your skin look better. I have been on 10 ...

yeah the fist derm did, but they ruled it out! Im not sure why... its strange because I usually have very clear skin even if it is rosacea, accutane works for that condition as well. Please keep us ...

The lowest point of my life was my first course of accutane. I literally had people asking me if I had pox or had contracted some sort of third-world parasitic illness that was eating away my face. It...

  no it is not too low. All that matters in terms of preventing relapse upon cessation of treatment is the cumulative dosage. The ideal dosage for acne would be 120 mg/kg. You will just have to...
