Ok, I was on accutane at the beginning of February (40 mg) for like a month and a half...and quit because of the back pain. Being on a lower dosage and on such a short period, my side effects, other t...

I've asked everyone I knew in real life that took accutane, it was about 10 people and only one of them said they noticed hair loss but it stopped after treatment. I do think some hair shedding is a ...

Last month I decided on accutane. My dermatologist's medical assistant made a follow up appt this month. I come in and basically that MA screwed everything up. Last month she was supposed to put my in...

Tane does shrink pores but not sure if it's worth it just for that with all the possible effects.

hey all, Is there anything i can use to reduce the amount of oil/sebum my skin produces, its destroying my complexion. i dont have very good skin tone or texture, but the oil is just making matters ev...

I was teased. Every single day by this guy in 8th grade. After that experience...I have never been the same about my acne. I let it control my life, sadly... 8th grade? Maybe he liked you lol.

Back pain and loss of libido are common side effects of accutane, it goes away for most when they stop accutane. I had really bad back pain and some loss of libido, I didn't have an issue with erectio...

Hi Dave6677, I use bp after my moisturizer. Should i do that before or after bp? I'm thinking before right? Some like to moisturize before and some after, it's a personal preference, but if you're g...

Well I think what I'm taking must be a bit different, because its daily amount is 25k IU. Which is one pill. Know what I'm saying? Like why is it so high for one pill if that's the "daily intake" on t...

Ok guys, i need help with this. Do i moisturize or not? Oily/sensitive/combo/acne prone skin. Ive read so many old posts, but i want to hear some more recent answers since things are ever changing for...

Yeah, I'm trying to be as careful as possible. 50k IU is the most I'll take, which, if I'm correct isn't a crazy amount, but I'm still going to see if I start experiencing any side effects. 50k is s...

Careful with megadosing, vitamin a toxicity has a lot of the same side effects as accutane.

Take it with water (since you need to be drinking plenty of water anyway while on tane) shortly after you eat or drink a glass of milk because fat helps with the absorption.

It's unorthodox but putting Milk of Magnesia on my face is helping.

I tried it a couple weeks ago. I was taking 900 mg I think. I quit though because it killed my libido lol. I was only on it for 2 weeks but it didnt do anything for my oily skin where as a high dose o...

How effective was it for reducing oily skin, redness and shrinking pores for you? What gender are you and what side effects did you have? How many mg were you taking daily? Thank you and God bless.

Relax, you have like level one acne. A better acne cream and face wash will do the trick for you.

Do 20 push ups every time you touch your face, it's a win-win, either you stop touching your face or you get ripped.

travelleruk Just a heads up, hair loss is also a possible side effect from accutane.

Haha! Catchy. Yeah, if I do decide to go ahead and do accutane, I'm going to ask the derm what he/she thinks about dosage. I know that if I feel bad during accutane, I can just stop. Are you planning ...

High-risk, high-reward. Everyone's body responds differently. For some, it was a miracle drug with very minimal side effects, but others, it was a nightmare, with every long-lasting side effect and it...
