Keep taking it. Also ask your doc for topical treatment to avoid scars. Don't touch it.

I strongly recommend going to best skin specialist in town. There are side effects of this medicine. But I chose it as it was the only med that worked on me.

i did. best thing that ever happened to me. side effects an an itch but its worth it in the end. you're in canada so it will be monitored. u gotta have ur blood tested every month. so its pretty safe. just remember to follow all the instructions. take the plunge.

Go see a skin specialist rather than trying on your own. Does accutane contains Isotretonin ? If yes, then keep taking it. Also ask your doc for topical treatment to avoid scars. Don't touch it.

yes accutane is isotretonin. its last line of acne treatment. in canada i believe u cant take it without dermatologist supervision

Yeah I just went to a skin specialist today and got accutane 40mg. I am ashamed to ask my frnds so I am using forum where I spend most of my day. If I start tonight I wont stop for sure until it competes the program. yes it does have isotretonin.

I don't have scarring acne. I only have it on forehead. I just wanna know it someone other guy took it and what side effects it had and how bad were they.

take retin-a 0.1%

I did it just destroyed the forehead. Red and burnt. Soo low on confidence since last 6 months. My life sucks. phuckk teenage.. :(

don't worry about side effects. u will have extremely dry skin the entire time you are on it. the worst is the lips, face and hand. which u can easy counter with excessive moisturizing. other than that you might feel a bit exhausted. different people have different side effects. the internet really scares you when it comes to medication like this. but for me it was all very postive.

you did not use it properly. you have to use a very tiny amount a (pea size or 2) for your entire forehead. use it on dry clean skin. use it only one time a week. and when you go out put sunblock on that area. don't rub that area when you shower or wash your face. just put soap and rinse if need to clean your face.

when used properly it will dry out your skin and make it peel, clearing up your pores and pimples. your pimples will dry, shrivel up and disappear.

there is nothing more efffective on the market for pimples than Retin-A. but it must be used properly.

40 mg is too high. I started at 20 mg and mine was of worst kind. Now I rarely take 10 mg. It affects liver but I didn't see any side effect. These medicines can cause depression too. May be your doc will reduce the dosage as time goes by.

The side effects mentioned are written on leaflet but I never had any problem with it. If you are feel these side effects, which don't usually happen, your doc can easily change it. Also ask your doc, what type of acne you have.

But its the best drug in market for acne. I really never cared of side effects. All skin related drugs have side effects so its easy for you to decide. But this drug is worth it because Acne causes too many problems. Those problems are way much worse than these side effects (which I never had).

This low confidence and people's eyes on your face and their pity and stupid words are much worse than any side effects. Don't stop this medication. You are lucky you started early.

You take the capsules right ?

Krait Bhai thanks soo much. This is helpfull. Yeah he got me on 40mg lets see how it goes. My problem is not that bad so he was reluctant to prescribe it. But today he agreed. Just hoping nothing wrong happens. yeah I am taking capsules.

If I dont come on forum for 48 hrs samaj lena Karan Singh Sandhu is gone.

the dosage depends on the patients height and weight. if he is prescribed 40 mg i assume its the right dosage for him. accutane (like many other meds) can affect the liver. thats why they monitor your blood monthly. so if something comes up they will stop him. its not a drug u take forever. its usually taken in "courses" of 6 months or 8 months. so the safety precautions are taken care of. 10 mg is very low dose and likely would not be effective on most people with moderate-severe acne unless you do it long term.

accutane is more effective than topical retin-A. it is also more risky. but at the end of the day it is the only "cure". topical retin-A does not work on some people. they need something stronger.
