I used Accutane about 9 years ago to great success. I know nothing about the Chinese stuff and would be seriously sceptical. Its probably just a dose of Vitamin A, but I really don't know what I'm talking about. The dbol in my last cycle killed my shoulders and back with acne and its hard to reach all of those areas with a topical and not exactly the most romantic request for a gf ("Hey honey, mind rubbing this on my back zits?"). I've been thinking about Accutane again, but there has been alot more research done on the side effects that have me concerned. If the acne was on my face, I'd probably consider it again, though. I think there are some new topicals out in the last year or two that might be a better choice.
