Accutane as you may have noticed, comes with sometimes mild, sometimes extreme side effects, which makes it a highly controlled substance only meant for extreme situations. Because it has such a profound effect on the body, the body can also experience some problems when going off of it, and some of the side effects, such as dry skin or sore joints, may be permanent. Some doctors recommend a weening regimen when stopping Accutane while others take other approaches. If you want the safest way for your daughter to stop Accutane, we would recommend that you consult with your doctor/dermatologist.

My daughter just completed her last dose of accutane. Should she expect any problems as her body adjusts to being off the drug?

All the talk about dry lips, dry mouth, dry skin etc., is happening to me already. I can fel my forehead itch or drying up, my lips and nostrils as well. Such a tight dry feeling, and body fatigue, even my eyes are extremely dry. M scalp is starting to feel dry and itchy.
I didn`t even take or use accutane, I just finished reading all the reviews.
So I guess another alternative to taking accutane is to just read the reviews.
Awesome, thank you all for testing the accutane, and reviewing it for others.
Im happy for those that went through the entire process and pain, resulting in good skin. Im sorry for those who did not gain any good results and ended up with the side effects. BUT YOU ALL ARE AMAZING TEST BUNNIES.I LOVE YOU ALL.
As for me, I will not take accutane. Thank you GOD for the reviews.

I am 42 and have had severe cystic acne for 24 years,I have spent thousands of pounds on over the counter treatments and doctor prescribed pills over those years.I have shattering low self esteem because of my skin and many relationships have ended partially due to my issue with being unable to allow a partner to touch or hold my face.
I do not go out socially unless to close friends and family,I am sick to death with being stared at in the street and overhearing comments about the state of my face.
I have a high profile job but most days can’t wait to get home,shut the door and remove the layers of makeup I wear daily in order to camouflage my skin.
After a horrific skin infection a few months ago I was at my first dermatology appointment yesterday,the dermatologist has recommended accutane as a permanent solution to my terminal acne.He has discussed the side affects with me and I need to think seriously about them,the risk of pregnancy is not an issue for me but I am concerned about the impact on my mental health as I have suffered depression in the past,although this has been directly linked to the way my skin looked and in turn the serious impact that has had on my self esteem.Therefore if I were to see the improvement on my skin I am sure that would improve my confidence to go out and socialise more,which helps mental health.
I have battled this disorder for 24 years and I am exhausted with it,all I want to do is be able to wash and moisturise my face and go … with no makeup or camouflage required.
I feel I need to at least give accutane a chance as even the side effects do not feel as debilitating as this skin disorder has been on me for more than half of my life.

My 17 year old son is beginning his fifth month on Accutane. Initially I was very hesitant to start him on this because of all the negative side effects and all the terrible things you hear about it. He did have some of the usual side effects – severely dry skin on his hands and areas of his arms, chapped lips, dry nose with occasional nose bleeds, and minor back pain but no depression or change in behavior or mood. He wears contacts and hasn’t had any problems in that area either. He did have bad break-outs around the second or third month but his skin is much clearer now than it has ever been. Hopefully at the end of the fifth month, he will be 100% acne-free. I would recommend this for anyone that has severe acne and that, like us, tried everything else offered.

Today I went to the derm for my last check up after five months on Accutane. Tears were brought to my eyes when she showed me the before and after pictures of my face. After suffering with acne all throughout my teenage years, nothing has given me the results that Accutane has. My skin is completely clear and I have not broken out in nearly two months. The few months of mild back pain and dry skin are worth it! I never thought my skin would look this good. I know everyone reacts differently to this medicine, but please take my advice and try it! You may be as happy as I am.

My last dose of accutane was in 2009. My symptoms did not start until 2010. I have frequent diarrhea everyday in the beginning I use to vomit. The doctors are now trying to fond out what’s wrong with me I’m on two medications for the pain, diarrhea and vomiting. I have also lost over 50 pounds. I do not encourage anyone to take accutane. You may think it cant happen to you but I’m living proof.

Works amazing. I’m three months in and the only issue I have had is back pain. In my eyes, I can deal with some side effects if it makes the pain of looking in the mirror disappear. Just toughen up and stick it out and your skin will be flawless. My skin has been amazing since I started it. I’m not saying to ignore side effects and reconsider but don’t let them stand in the way. I suffered for four years longer then I should have just because I was worried. Don’t wait any longer

I fought with acne throughout my teenage years and tried everything to get rid of it (proactiv, neutrogena, retin-a, clean and clear, you name it). I experienced quite an initial breakout soon after I started accutane but was expecting it and told myself my skin would get better. I’m now in the last week of my treatment and my skin is flawless. I haven’t had a single zit in 3 months, and scars from my previous breakouts are fading. If your in doubt that accutane can solve your acne frustrations, don’t be. Survive the first two months or so of accutane and you will be rewarded with the complexion you’ve always wanted.
