Accutane with no zits?

[budwardo09]

I have been on every antibiotic know to man to control acne. I am currently on eurycmine (spelling) About 3 weeks ago I went to the derm with some acne on my back and the back of my head. After years of going to this guy and all the antibiotics he decided to give me a low dose of accutane. 40mgs a week. I started my cycle of 500mg omnadren with 500mg eq for 12 weeks about 2 weeks ago I am not gaing alot of weight but my strength is up and my appitite is through the roof. Anyway my acne is now gone, I have not started taking my accutane. I am supposed to get my blood work done every month. I usally get acne after my cycle, so I was planning on the accutane post cycle do get rid of the stubborn pct acne. Would I be better off starting it now to make sure the acne does not even come at all? No oil glands = no acne. I dont need to hear how bad accutane is because I have read everything about it. EVERYONE I know that has taking accutane, at least a dozen people, say it is a miracle drug. I guess I could stockpile the accutane and just keep going to my blood tests. Problem is that my levels will be good. I really wanted to be under supervision while taking accutane. I know its a long post but just need some opinions. Thanks.

i always have accutne on hand just in case...i have had serious problems with acne in my life. on my current cycle ive been lucky so far, im on tren and test and have ha maybe just a few pimples that arevery small, buf start to notice the big ones coming then i have the accutane on hand and would dose it at 20mgs daily until it subsided and then stop....this does the trick for me....by the way ive been using panothenic acid since i started my cycle which is suppose to stop oil production

I know alot of guys use 20-40mg a week as a preventative measure. Its such a low dose you dont need to worry about liver sides. If you are very prone to acne though you will need to run like 20-40mg ED until the acne is greatly subsided then taper down till you reach 20-40mg per week and adjust accordingly to your acne.

I ran Accutane one month before my cycle and about 6 weeks into the cycle. I was dried out and it worked great. I would start the Accutane 1 month before the end of your cycle so you are dried out by the time pct comes around which is when many people get acne.

Thanks for the input. I think I will wait another month until I start taking the accutane. I know hormones cause an imbalance and that is why most acne is started, but take the oil glands away and poff the acne should not come, at least I hope. By the way I just weighed myself and I did gain about 5 pounds, Started at 230 hoping to get to 250, not into getting to lean I just like to look big.lol

most derma's will make you run it for 6 months at varying doses so how long has he put you on for ?

I have been on 20mg ed for 4 months and will go 6 months at 20mg ed to hopefully stop them for good ,im running tren and test atm and are clear of any first time ever .

Everyone is different. My lipid profile was ALL messed up from accutane at 40mg a day. Lips so dry they were cracking, looked swollen, headaches.

Fact is, I've had more side effects from accutane than with tren, dbol, test, winny, eq, clen, ec stack and anything else I've ever ran. A few guys from my gym also had messed up levels from accutane.

Now that I said how bad it is cause you didn't wanna hear it ;-) here's my .02

If you know you always get acne after cycle, then start it ahead of time. I've never gotten dried out when I used accutane til atleast the mid 2nd month if not later

Daniel Kern's kit and tanning always worked for me from cycle induced acne. http://www.danielkern.com/category-s/25.htm
