Sounds like pretty scary shit....
Accutane
I. Definition:
Isotretinoin (trade name: Accutane) is a powerful drug used in the treatment of acne. Four to five months of isotretinoin treatment usually
leads to clearing of acne for one year or more after the medicine is stopped. Most other acne-controlling medicines are antibacterial
agents, which are effective only if the medicine is used daily.
II. Side Effects:
Isotretinoin isn't a permanent cure for acne, although it often buys time until nature clears your skin. Your skin may stay clear for
months, even years, after isotretinoin is stopped.
In about one person in 10, acne comes back after one year. About one person in four has acne again after two years. If your acne
returns, antibiotics may work, or you may be treated with isotretinoin again.
The use of daily alpha hydroxyacids will help prevent small flare-ups after a course of Accutane.
Why shouldn't all acne patients take isotretinoin? Isotretinoin has significant side effects:
Side Effects: Frequency:
Chapped lips 90%
Dry skin and itching 80% - the use of daily alpha hydroxacids will help prevent this side effect.
Dryness of nose, mild nosebleed 80%
Irritation of the eyelids and eyes 40% - Vitamin E 400 IU each day may lessen this side effect.
Joint and muscle pains 15%
Temporary hair thinning 10%
Rash 7%
Intestinal symptoms 5%
Urinary symptoms 5%
Headache 5%
Increased sensitivity to sunburn 5% - the use of daily sunscreen will help prevent this side effect.
Decreased night vision <1%
Depression, thoughts of suicide <1%
The most damaging side effect of isotretinoin is serious birth defects if taken during pregnancy.
It is critically important for women not to take isotretinoin while pregnant, and not to become
pregnant while taking it. A woman who does get pregnant while on isotretinoin must be prepared to have an abortion and must state this in
writing before many physicians will prescribe isotretinoin for her.
III. How does isotretinoin work?
Isotretinoin decreases the amount of oil produced by the skin's sebaceous (oil) glands. It may be as long as two months before you see
improvement in your skin. There's no medicine we can add to speed up isotretinoin's action. In fact, sometimes acne gets worse during
the first month or so of treatment. Side effects, such as lip dryness, begin before the acne starts to clear.
IV. How To Use Isotretinoin:
Take the medicine with food, you can take the entire daily dose with supper, this increases the absorption of the medicine.
V. Long-term Results:
Isotretinoin isn't a permanent cure for acne, although it often buys time until nature clears your skin. Your skin may stay clear for
months, even years, after isotretinoin is stopped.
In about one person in 10, acne comes back after one year. About one person in four has acne again after two years. If your acne
returns, antibiotics may work, or you may be treated with isotretinoin again.
The use of daily alpha hydroxyacids will help prevent small flare-ups after a course of Accutane.
