Experiences with Roaccutane

I've had two courses and both times have been very happy. Course there are side effects but in my eyes they're manageable. The first course was 8 years ago then after having 2 children, had another course. The result is super and if I need to take it again then I will without question.

Nothing helped against my acne. GP wanted to quit treatment. My dermatologist only gave me some antibiotics. After a search on the internet I found this and suggested a trial. I finished the treatment and the acne disappeared, but my skin looks horrible like the surface of the moon. Now a year on the acne is coming back and I don’t know if I’m going to repeat the treatment because it really mad...

I started on isotretinoin, usually roaccutane, on 25 April. since then I've kept a regular record of the changes, photos etc. I could see that my acne had genuinely halved over the course of 3 weeks. My dose has now been increased from 20 mg to 40 mg but I overheard that my liver values are on the high side so i'm not really sure if I want to be on the 40 mg but i'll do my best.

After the treatment ended, now three months ago, I didn’t have any pimples for about two months. They’ve been coming back over the l...

This is now my third course, the acne on my cheeks and chin was horrendous. The dermatologist gave me 20 mg per day. Visible effect after just 1 month. Got dry lips that I had to moisturise 3 times a day. Also, dry nose and crusty, dry snot. It was really painful and cleaning it led to bleeding. But my spots have gone, just got small red marks. They disappear in the sun after about half a year....

Hi, I've also been taking this the nearly 3 months. I've read everywhere that it takes time. The first month I had 40 mg, second month 60. And now my third month and at 80 mg!! At the end of February I'll be up to my maximum dose of 120 mg. I'm just wondering what brand you guys take? Because Roaccutane from Roche has been off the market since July. Am quite concerned that this cheap version th...

I posted here on 23 September. This week I have been told that I have irritable bowel syndrome and that is because of roaccutane. I have only had one bowel infection because of roa and this stops your intestines working so well. It will pass in 1-2 years, at least I hope so.
