What the hell? Your family sounds like some real assholes (no offense). I would probably snap on somebody if they ever said anything negative about my acne. Yeah I'm the defensive type.

I recently read that 85 percent of Accutane users clear up, but 25 percent have a relapse. Anyways, I finished in Jan '07. I started my second course two weeks ago. YES, get another round of accutane if you can. GOOD LUCK!!!

I'm a little skeptical about taking the Vitamin E now because I've gotten a couple nose bleeds already.

anyone?

anybody?

I am on my second course of Accutane, and was wondering if I could add these to my "diet". I bought: Zinc, 50 mg (Zinc Gluconate) Vitamin E 400 I.U. Vitcamin C - 500 mg Would anybody advise against taking any of these? I was also thinking about taking Alpha lipoic acid as well. Oh and I'm already taking Fish oil 3 times a day (100 mg/day).

Is this ok to take while on accutane? I've heard that fish oil sometimes contains Vitamin A so I realize you should not be taking Vitamin A supplements while taking accutane. However, I've heard that omega 3's from cod liver oil is the stuff that actually has the Vitamin A in it. As far as the supplement facts listed on the bottle, it shows no signs of any Vitamin A. I apologize if this has been discussed before, but I've been wondering this for a while. Thank you!

I am the same way. It's either my left cheek is broken out or my right. I dunno why either. I just finished with accutane in January. After 3 months the acne KIND of returned. I'm about to do a 2nd treatment. My acne is moderate. Never severe - never any cysts.

Because you have mild acne, chances are antibiotics and/or topical creams WILL work for you.

It takes it least 2-3 months to see any significant improvement. However, I finished my treatment in January '07 and the acne has returned. I had moderate, yet persistent acne and took 80 mg/day for 5 months.

Sorry I didn't mean to put this in the Accutane logs thread.

I was on 80 mg/day for 4 months - the first month I did 40 mg/day so I was on it for 5 months total. My acne is moderate/mild but yet persistent. I'm 23 years old. I had red marks left over from accutane, but I didn't have much of a breakout while on it and I stayed clear for until maybe 2-3 weeks ago when I got my first bump after finishing the treatment. And a couple days ago I got another bump on my cheek. My treatment ended up the first week of January. I'm tryin not to make a big deal

Yeah I try not to EVER touch my face.
