[sausage]

i have been taking accutane for a little over a month now 40mg's a day just kicked it up to 60 a day 3 days ago.for about 2 weeks now my workouts have sucked ive been getting dizzy when i try to lift hard. has anyone that have tried accutane ever experienced this?Im getting ready to start a cycle and im worried my gains will suck cause i cant workout hard without getting dizzy.

I used it once when I was younger and will never use it again. It dried out my lips so bad it hurt and yes it made me a little light headed too. Too many side effects. Do you really need it? Also its harsh on the liver thats something else to think about if your running it with your next cycle.

3+ months for me. just dry lips and clean skin.

Are you drinking or taking any other meds by mouth?

i have been taking accutane for my back for about a month and a half and it hasn't effected my workout at all. Personally i think that it is all in your head, just stay positive. If you are having problems with dry lips use aquaphor at night, it will do the trick.

Same here. Im going into 5th month at 80mg a day with no other side effects...drinking tons of water relly helps

I'm going to be resuming my Accutane when I start my clomid. I stopped taking it because I was concerned about any complications it might have with my cycle, and I didn't want to ask my doctor what he thought about it.

It really sucks, it makes me lethargic and just generally down. I have a little more and if it doesn't work, I'm going to tell me doctor I don't want to take it anymore. When I was taking it, it did work extremely well.

dried lips is an understatement. My lips almost freakin chapped off. That accutane can mess a guy up. BUT it can mess up the acne too. Gets rid of it good

shoichi,
i was considering my first cycle of juice while on accutane and i wasn't sure? why did you decide stop taking accutane when you started your cycle? if you take injectables and not orals it shouldn't be bad because the injectables dont mess with your liver, right?

i will be doing it on my cycle at 40 mg's a day and as soon as i come off ill bump it to 80 mg's a day
