I'm about to start accutane and wanted to know any advice or reviews on this drug?
Was there an initial breakout? When did it start, how long did it last?
Side effect?
Positives and negative or the meds?
When did you see clear skin?
Over all review?
Thank you!
I just got off it a few months ago, so I'll tell you all about it. Yes, there will be a initial breakout, it should start after about a week of taking it. The most common side effect that you will experience is dryness, so stock up on moisturizers and chap-stick. In rare cases you get stomach pain or violent tendencies, but I never got them and there rare, but if you do get them let your family/doctor know. After about 2-3 months you should notice your skin REALLY clearing up though, but you still need to keep going after that for at least 5 months total. Also, you CANNOT get pregnant while on this, or your baby will have horrific birth defects.
I hope all this info helps, and good luck!
