Doctor Accutane Excuse
- Thread starter hayz
- Start date
Virtually the only reason accutane is prescribed is for nodular acne (which is the worst). Nodular acne is the lump/knots deep under the skin kinda acne.
The likeliness of you getting prescribed it without having rough acne is unlikely. The possible sides are enough to make doctors very weary when prescribing it.
You must also keep in mind that they they're going to run bloodword before they prescribe it to you. Specifically your liver and lipid profile. If either are out of whack at all they wont give it a second thought.
You can get accutane from other places. Isotretinoin. www.ag-guys.com

Be careful running that shit on a cycle. Very bad for liver. I used it conjuction with a cycle though. I went to a dermatologist and then my regular doctor and they both hooked me up. But they were the only 2 as I tried to get it for a few years. Tell them you've been on every anabiotic imaginable and nothing has worked. Tell them your too old to be getting acne and that you want something that will get rid of it forever. Bam

Strange. I went on cycle 2 months after starting accutane.
trenbolone Acet, 100mg/eod, 1-10wks
testosterone enanthate, 750mg/ml, 1-10wks
Everything went without a hitch. They took my blood beforehand to use as a baseline. My levels never once elevated the 8 months i was on accutane, nor the 10wks i was on cycle.
I would say that it has the ability to be very damaging to the liver, as does any 17 alpha-alkylated, if not used correctly, but no more than 'Anadrol 50 - oxymetholone - , Dianabol - methandrostenolone - , or Winstrol - stanozolol etc.
Tylers Liver Detox and bloodwork would be a damned good idea

(EDIT: Good idea, bam!)
Its not half as bad as everyone says. The absolute worst part is the dry lips. And you learn to stash 10-15 chapsticks everywhere you go .
The results were 100x worth the side effects and price. I grew up with terrible acne and had it badly from 5th grade all the way through highschool.

I have probably written more extensive posts on this alone through my experience. SO here's the short version, if you want the longer version, do a search and find my pages of examples:
1st:
Go to a dermatologist.
2nd.
Say that you have had acne since puberty and you're freakin' sick of it and you want to try accutane. Most dermatologists will prescribe this medication while most general practioners won't due to long papers/forms on their end from law suits. My derm told me that it's harder for him to prescribe accutane than pain meds!
3rd.
Once you enroll in the accutane program and shell out the money for the medicine (hopefully you have ins. cuz this stuff costs anywhere from 300-500$.) I chose amnesteen 40mg capsules over the 30mg crap made in india. (fo'get that!).
4th.
Start running 3-5 grams of Omega-3 fatty acids everyday! half in the morning, half at night. This will keep your liver values LOW while on the accutane cycle. It takes about a month to see results, but best start now anways and continue throughout 6 month accutane cycle. I did this and my derm was flipping out how low my numbers were for being on accutane. My total cholestoral was 150.
5th.
Get the following: Eucerin Aquafore intensive lotion. It comes in small 1.5 oz or 3 oz tubes. It's thick and clear like vaseline. Use this on your lips to prevent drying once the drying begins!
Vaseline lubrication drops: Once your eyes dry on accutane, you need to apply 1 drop to each eye EVERY HOUR! This is important. My eye doc told me this while I was on. When your eyes are dry - it's already to late, so don't wait til they feel dry, just start putting them in every hour.
Vaseline Intensive lotion. It's a white bottle with a blue top. There's no smell, and it's not greasy. Rub this on your body to keep your skin healthy and lubricated once the drying begins.
6th.
Lastly, be prepared for a long 6 months. I started out at 60 mgs the first 2 months. The doc will look for a rash to appear on your arms, this indicates that it is working. At this point, you can increase or stay at that level. Since I didn't want to use that crap from India, and I figured since my cholestoral levels were great, upping it to 80 was my next option. He would have gone to 120, but 80 was perfect for me. Months 3-5 aren't that bad once you get used to it. The sixth month is insane. Super dryness occurs and it just sucks. I had to drop to 40mgs a day instead of 80 due to excessive migraines. I still have a box of 40mgs 30ct left over
Good luck!
A note: If you don't care to cure yourself of major outbreaks during the cycle and you would like to do this to maintain, buy 50mgs from Ag-guys (there are others out there btw). Run 50mgs everyday for the first 2 weeks. Once your dryness begins, cut it down to 50 e0d and then 25 e0d and spread it wider. Accutane builds up in your system and lasts for 30 days. But it's the initial dryness is what you are looking for. You can find it at other research comps dosed out at 20-25, but 50mgs from ag seems to be the best way to go, imho.
Got any other questions, hit me with some good karma and I'll answer it! hahaha..just joking!

Its tough to say what medication you really need cause everyone is different. But I have had really bad acne since gr 7 and have been taking acne meds off and on ever since. My doctor said he prescribes 3 different acne medications, one of which is accutane. However, accutane is very harsh and takes a toll on your body...also you will have the worst break-out of your life when you first go on it. I have had two buddies of mine go on accutane...one didn't seen any sides at all from it, except when he boozed (very bad idea) and the other got some fierce rashes all over his body.
The other two options (i totally forget the names of both, ill post them up later when i find out) are like a orange/blue pill and a chalky white one. I usually alternate between the two...chalk white pill for winter and the other for summer. I guess you could say i stack it with some lotion the doc also prescribes. But also one of the main causes of acne is your bed sheets believe it or not! Make sure you alternate pillow covers throughout the week and wash them at least once a week. This technique probably helped the most than any meds because you wouldn't believe the amount of sweat that accumulates on your bed sheets. Shower at least twice a day, especially after working out. Do that bro you and should be in the clear!

Thanx for the great post fella, still deciding if its worth it or not. Il do a bit more research but the problem is i still like to party and i like to drink. One of my mates went on accetane and couldnt drink for 6 months. Obviously because of the effect it has on the liver and kidneys.
Might just have to stick to the old method of constant exfoliation and pro active, tanning aswell obviously.
thanx again
oh and by the way here is so of that precious Karma u wanted, no charge.

I take minocycline, but i have been battling acne for a long time, Tanning seemed to do the best for me, I just hate when i get those deep ones that hurt like a MOFO.
This is the first time I've taken this, I was washing with a prescrition soap that sucked ass. This pill has cleared up 90% of it but it doesn't seem to get rid of the deep acne i get.

I was taking minicycline also , but it obviously doesn't work while on gear. Steroids cause the oil glands to grow in size and produce excess amounts of oil and if you are prone to acne already, it's going to get worse, even when you're off. My dermatologist explained to me that the oil tubes that lead from the gland to the skin are curved in those of us who have adult acne. He also explained that the pores aren't formed in a oval shape, unlike those those who don't experience acne. The great thing about accutane is not only does it shrink those glands and stop the oil production, it also corrects those tubes and pores! I still get a few zits here and there, but nothing unlike anyone else. I would definitely do the cycle over again if I had to, that's for sure! He said that in some cases, adults will do 6 months off, and then wait 6 months to a year and see if it returns. If it does, another cycle will cure it. I can definitely feel the difference in my skin now, it's always super dry when I'm not on cycle and I have to lotion my body atleast once a day, whereas, before the accutane cycle, I never touched lotion because it would cause me to break out even worse! I keep that extra bit on hand just in case I start breaking out during cycle. I'm on Equipoise - boldenone undecylenate - right now, so if it's anything like my first cycle, I might have to take a bit of accutane towards the end of the cycle.

Thanks for the karma! hahaha. But seriously bro, if you are still in that 'partyin' mode, then why don't you save your gear for when you get out of it? You can actually diminish the good sides of gear when you're drinking and partying.. It's a dedication and you need to have it while you are on, besides, what's 14 weeks without alcohol considering how good you'll look afterwards?? gear/weight-training + diet = success. G/w+diet and beer/pot/drugs = well...not so good.. I've been there while on cycle and I wasn't kidding anyone but myself with the final results. The best I have ever looked was when I cycle without abusing anything, and I think that holds true for everyone who uses steroids. And besides, It's not such a great look wearing your tank top with oozing bacne, face acne and neckacne and bloated with muscles...lol. I see young guys at the gym who are obviously on, and I just want to say, "ACCUTANE BRO!!!!" haha. but I just keep to myself and pound the weights..
