The best thing you can do is finish the cycle... deal with your acne as best you can with Salicylic Acid soap and other topical remedies... then get on Accutane and eliminate acne for the rest of your life.

Does Accutane have any side effects?

Does Accutane have any side effects?

Plenty... It can dry skin, chap lips, cause depression and elevate liver values.

You have to do it for 6 months and after that point the sebaceeous gland is permanently altered and will no longer produce the cystic acne.

Is that safe? To alter the sebaceeous gland?

Accutane is not a cure all by any means. It is meant more for cystic acne as opposed to whiteheads/blackheads, etc. Don't think that if you take it once you are cured from acne for life.

What type of acne are you getting?

I had really bad acne, much of it cystic on my back and shoulders pretty much all summer. I tried Panothenic acid(sp) from A health store, but it did very little for my extreme case. My doc prescribed 3 different things that never worked much until I went to a dermatologist. he put me on Doxycycline orals, and Clindamycin topical. I noticed a very significant change within 4-6 weeks and 2 months later is almost completely gone. I still have little red pimples, but no heads on them and definately no cistic type. Should be gone in another month hopefully. So far I can't really see any scarring either.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

Like Hey Mister replied the above statement is not true. I have done 3 courses of accutane at the suggested dosage of 80mg/day for 6 months for normal non AAS induced acne and it then comes back within a year. I would not consider doing a lengthy cycle without accutane in the mix. I am currently researching "2 week" cycles as a potential in the future without accutane to see how minimal the breakout would be. Accutane is defintely tough on the lipid profile hence my desire to find a way of cycling without it.

When does acne usually start to appear when on a cycle? Towards the end? or does it usually only take place post cycle?

I have seen some people with VERY bad acne looking great after using Accutane.

A girl I went to high school with had real bad "pizza face" acne. Long story short, she went on a 6 month cycle of Accutane. Completely cleared her skin and she's now a model for a well known clothing store in Atlanta. I talked to her a while back about it, and she told me she had several liver tests done after the dosage and everything came back 100%. It's also been 4 yrs since she took the stuff, and she never breaks out anymore. I do believe it cured her for life.
