Just gonna add my two cents quickly.   Yes soul taking clonidine in 3 smaller doses will help, all be it marginly. I decided to try clonidine three times daily for a while before adding the remer...

I mean... I def. flush worse when I'm upset, stressed out, or angry. But more than anything else it's just the heat that makes me flush.   I guess you could be right. I just was so comforted wit...

Do you really think that it is psychological???? I was told that sometimes it just takes a long time for your body to recover even after the medicine is out of your system. And it even happens to me w...

hey soul are you going to try paxil?   I am really considering it. It may help with the chemical balance that causes flushing because from what I understand, flushing is caused by a response in...

Hey soul. I never was on Accutane. I have been on other medications. It started when I went on SOLODYN. I jumped right into bactrim and then to spiro after that. Since I was on spiro the flushing has ...

I have some what oily skin. Def. not dry.   I'm gonna be eating super healthy, lots of water, lots of green tea, and exercising. I think exercising may help since it gets your blood flowing and ...

Here is some interesting info on Paxil and how it helps with flushing...  

Thanks for the info.   I am currently taking 1 and a half clonidine tabs twice per day, perhaps I should try breaking it up into 3 doses of .75 instead of 2 doses. Did you try 2 doses initially ...

Also, where can I read up more on martizapine and its anti flushing properties?   Thanks

Good thread.   The good news I am hearing is that from all who have gone through this horrific side effect (and yes I mean horrific), all have said that it has gotten much better with time, some ...

Umm I think the flushing/redness slowly started to come on a couple of months after I got off Accutane. Honestly it sounds like you and I have the same problem. In my experience the minocycline was ...

Whoa! I was forced to stop Accutane 7 weeks ago due to intense flushing and then I was put on minocycline which I am still on now. I get severe, burning, flushing on the sides of my cheeks, and no w...

elizabethmargot...when you wash your face and run your fingers gently over your shallow scarring, can you feel anything? Is it rough or can you feel the divets, cause I can't but I can see them. In ...

I don't think people really understood the question correctly...we were asking if they go away or reduce a lot *after* accutane not while taking accutane.   input from people who are 6-12 months ...

if your scarring is somewhat superficial an only really evident in certain lighting, is it fair to say that it will go away after accutane? I don't care if it takes a year of retin-a etc. just hope t...

Well it seemed to be somewhat working but then I had to stop after about 5 days because it was irritating my skin. I think it is the Propylene Glycol. I have it mized 50% Ethanol and %50 PPG.

I have had this persistant cyst for close to 5 months with no head. I have tried everything. I am now going to try an experimental treatment, RU58841. It is a topical anti-androgen with similiar ef...
