My face became really clear just from taking birth control, but I started taking accutane less than a week ago and my face is almost totally clear. Will accutane clear up my face 100% or just 70% Because I spent a lot of money on this stuff!

I have it very severe on my back. I have been on for 3 weeks now and my doctor said it is a 5 month program. I have not seen any change since i started it, if anything it looks worse. I have been on 20mg of accutane, so when I go in for my next appointment is will the dermatologist put me more 30-80mg because of the severity of my acne?

Been taking 20mg accutane per day for 54 days now and my acne is almost gone, apart from the odd couple of zits here and there. How long before skin clears totally?

I am a 15 year old male, 140 pounds but would I be able to use accutane? I have had a little trouble growing up with occational zits but I want them gone and done with. Please help me

(PLEASE DON’T comment if your not going to answer MY question) If not available online, where is the closest pharmacy that sells accutane once I cross the Mexico border? Can you give me the name or address of that pharmacy? Thanks so much!

do you think my doctor will give me it if my other medcine dosent work?

I’m just starting to take the pill…or actually seeing the effects such as dry skin and lips. I have no problems with my liver or anything, I’ve been cleared and actually started several days ago (6-ish).

Anyway, what are some good ways to keep moisture in my skin. I’ve always used lotion and chapstick (Burt’s Bee’s for some reason and Vaseline) but idk if they’ll still work…

HELP!!!

i was thinking of taking it, howcome you have to be on it for 6 months? what are some of the side effects?

I have pretty bad acne, and I just started Accutane 4 days ago. I have seen NO change at…How long does it take to start working?..I’m dying to have clear skin!!!

I had gone to the doctors before and the doctor wnats to put me on Accutane. The doctor said that since I have tried everything to get my acne away she wnats me to try accuntane since many people have been treated with this. I am tryiong to decide if I should. Some of the things that concern me are having to give blood every month. Now some may think well its only a little shot, but to me I swear I run from the sight of needles. For example, I had gone to the doctors– my mom went with me and once they said about taking my blood I said no way and started to get upset. How would someone react to this? The doctor was a little confused about me being scared of the needle since she said it is only a pinch. I keep wnating to go on Accutane to get my acne away, but it seems I always stop myself because of the whole taking blood. I have actually been through alot of surgeries so many people around me are kind of confused, but it seems no matter what I do I still can’t grab a hold of my sense and just let the doctor do it. What would you do? I keep thinking about going on Accutane, but the sight of the needle always haunts me. For example, I made another appointment to get on the Accutane and right when they said about needles i freaked out even when I knew they needed to do it. I would love to get on this , but my fear of needles keeps getting in the way. Please let me know what I should do?

Thank for to all who answer!
Also I am afraid of the side effects with getting depression. The doctor said I already have signs of depression so their should be nothing to worry about. I honestly don’t want to have to deal with my thoughts if my depression increases.
