Hey Bro. Good luck with your accutane cycle. If your acne is already imflamed then accutane will initially make it worse. Shrinking the sebacious glands will leave less room for the trapped and infected fluids. There are two ways to combat this problem.
1. Start off slow with the accutane. If 80mgs a day is recommended dose for your bodyweight then you would start off with 20mgs a day for a week then 40 next week...
2. Get your dermatologist to perscribe an antibiotic that you would take for a week before you start the accutane (minocycline works well). I would use reccomendation #2 and still ease into the accutane. You will have the least discomfort and the least chance of scarring from the increased acne. I wish I had this information when I started Accutane. Hope this helps.
