how did it end up working for you? My experiences with ultra low doses of Accutane are written throughout this thread! Please do go back in the pages to check them out. To update, it has been rough...

Hi there, PrimedCougar. I would say anywhere between 2.5 and 5 milligrams a day. Since you usually don't see doses that small, low-dose users often take 10 milligrams every other day. Eventually, onc...

Hi there, AnotherAffected. There is nothing I can say but that I empathize with what you have gone through. However, I could not imagine struggling with it for as long as you have. It really is tim...

hey, just out of curiosity, hydrocortisone isn't supposed to use for acne, right? isn't that for eczema? Well, hydrocortisone is an anti-inflammatory corticosteroid. The stuff can be used for any in...

It's got good reviews on the internet. are you using Ego sunsense daily face matte formula spf 30? I looked through the ingredients and it's good, sadly I don't have it here (they only sell it in the ...

Hi again. Thanks for the help. I am going to be on 20 mg a day, as far as my research goes.. I haven't seen anyone develop severe side effects with that dosage. Again, like I said in the post before,...

Hi all I am 24, 85 kgs. I have had mild acne on my face since I was 15, but when I turned 18, I also started developing acne on my shoulders and back. I always thought I would "grow out" of it but ha...

Yea, you mentioned the experience with said dose, and that is what I am doing. To be quite honest most people don't know the risks. People just hear about IB's, dry lips, and possible thinning of hair...

I was taking 40 mg's a day every 4 days. I was on that regimen for about 8 months when I developed Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Some days this is much worse then acne, because you feel bloated, sick to t...

Hey there, everyone! Just checking in because I know it's been a while. College has kept me from updating or even checking in often. You forget things here! Just to update people, my face is doing ex...

Just keep pushing through it, secret. Your case of acne seems just to be more difficult than mine so I fear my experience may not provide the best example. All I can tell you is that it will work! It ...

I'm glad the cephalexin is helping with the inflammation, it definitely helped me until the accutane really kicked in. I took the cephalexin for about 2 and a half months. I probably could have stoppe...

Sorry for this late response, Secretsky! Anyway, to answer your new questions: - When I took my first course of Accutane back in 2010 (normal dosage course) I had moderate/moderately severe acne, ch...

Hey secretsky, thanks for sharing your story! If you want my opinion, definitely take the opportunity to do a lower dose course. To answer your questions: - In terms of side effects, at that daily...

I'm a 21 year old male. Had moderate acne on forehead and sideburn areas. I started taking Accutane July 2011. A 'Normal' USA dosage of accutane for me would be about 70mg daily. I decided low-dose wa...

Hi, I'm new here but, sadly, not new to acne. I'm 32 and have suffered with mild to moderate acne and extremely oily skin since I was about 15. As a fitness and grooming consultant (at Smart Body Imag...
