Accutane fixed me, wish I took it years ago!

Accutane helped my acne problem too. After I stopped taking accutane, acne came back but not as much as before.

Accutane is practically a miracle fix if you can put up with the extreme temporary dry lips which will have you looking like you always lived in the desert. Your skins shed so fast acne cannot exist.

However the side effect to come 5-10 years later is devastating. You will have a suicidal urge like nothing you have ever seen. The choice is yours. But the suicide statistics paired with accutane is overwhelming. Us drug companies have done an almost perfect job of getting rid of accutane-side-effects articles online.

Accutane is a very powerful drug and it is usually only a last resort.It will cure your acne 98% of the time.You must not be pragnant or planning to get pragnant while on this medication because it will severely hurt the unborn baby and you will be forced to have an abortion.I know from experiance,my girlfriend had it happen to her.

When I was 14 I started getting acne, then it got out of control. Really bad.
I started on tetracyclene and it wasn't working so I went on accutane.
My acne was gone within months and never got as bad as it was before I took it.

Although there are side effects, I didn't have any except for the dry face, which I encouraged :p better than pimples I thought.

I've heard of this "suicidal tendancy" theory and can say i've never had any. I think the studies should look into the fact that people who take accutane probably had low self esteem in their teenage years, which might coincide with suicidal tendancies.

Anyway, eventually my acne began to fade, around 17/18 and kept fading.
Now i'm 29 and get a couple every once in a while, but so does everyone.

I don't know what the complications are for women, so you should look into it. But I would recommend accutane to anyone who has bad acne that they can't get rid of with antibiotics.
