    hi Zishaan, no I didnt get any spors at all – I didnt experience any side effects mouth-wise apart from dry/cracked lips. I think perhaps you should speak to your doctor about this because it seems like its one of the more unusual side effects, and its good to keep them informed even if its [...]

      Hi Claire,

      No no aches and pains yet – but I get them in my shoulders aNd back anyway so it is something I am worried about! I have heard that fish oil suppliments for healthy bones may something to take at this time?
      No offense to anyone but what are the posts about hairpieces about – I am aware of hair thinning as a side effecet of accutane…is this why?

      Thanks!

    Hi Fiona, Thanks for that. I had the appointment in the end before Christmas. Unfortunately, I was reffered to a clinic where they don’t prescribe isotretinoin! -although the dermatologist did agree that she would put me back on 60mg if she could. I think my GP should have made it clearer that I could only [...]

  • Fiona commented on the diary post Back On Roaccutane   4 weeks ago · View

    no he didn’t, just put me back on roaccutane. Antibiotics are a step down from roaccutane, so if a 5month course on Roacc has only produced 2/3months of clear skin its obviously a stubborn problem that wont go away with simple antibiotics (thats only in my opinion though!). I think if you go back to [...]

  • Fiona commented on the diary post Back On Roaccutane   1 month ago · View

    Definetly! what do you have to lose? Tell them that antibiotics are not strong enough and ask them directly about roaccantane. Make sure that you stress that this is a VERY long term problem, not just a few flare up – in my experience some docters can be quite dismissive of acne problems! If they [...]

    Hi,

    I have a few questions about Accuatane :

    1) Do you use contraception while taking Accuatane?

    2) What moisturizing creams to the face do you recommend ?

    3) Are you taking some shields to the liver ?

    4) What are you taking after the complete treatment ?

    I would be grateful for your answer.

    Yeah Isotretinoin is just another brand name for Accutane. I guess some folks get lucky and it works first time and permanantly for them, not the case for me though. Makes me wonder if it was Pityrosporum Folliculitis all along anyhow..
