Training on Roaccutane

[Sheena]

Hi everyone

I dont post often but when I do UI always get good answers here so I wonder if you can help.

I am about to start a course of Roaccutane which I have done many years back when I was 19, but I wasnt training then.

Now I am 30 and unfortunately have adult onset acne (great) so have to do another course.

When I did it the first time round it gave me muscular aches in my legs.

This is a common side affect.

My question to you is has anyone been on a course of this drug and still trained and did the aches affect their training, did it make you prone to injury etc...

Anyone?

Thanks alot.

i train while on accutane. its only bad for the first week or two and then for the first week everytime the doseage is increased. when laying down on the bench you feel it for a second in your back. in bent over rows you feel it right after you put the weight down...that one is painful, and when doing shoulder presses after you put the weight down you feel it in the neck.. those are the only bad ones really. now i just take a couple of advil before a workout and a few more after. works like a charm.
