Accutane and growth

[eldover]

Will I grow on 20mg isotretinoin for 8-12 months?

No, actually you will shrink, and you become a dwarf, and you will be kidnapped by an evil circus who will use you as an attraction and take you on a tour throughout all of the Slavic region.

Why

 

[aids]

Most recent study of isotretinoin, IIRC, showed that it did not inhibit growth in the patients that took it. They were actually taller than the patients who didn't take isotretinoin. That doesn't mean it's going to make you taller, rather evidence, not proof that it won't inhibit growth.

 

[Zeekie]

Why

As an actual answer, I'm not well-versed in the most recent scientific literature regarding isotretinoin, but I'm aware a couple of studies linked it to deformed growth plates and early closure. However, if this was recommended by a dermatologist, I'd follow the advice or ask them directly about it.

However, as far as I know these were mere correlations, these studies did not fully determine whether they make you shorter or not, but apparently they MIGHT.

or this, yeah.

But in some studies it reduces igf1

Cool. Show me these studies. You're not taking 60mg/day for a year, are you?

I was being sarcastic because these studies often involved a high dose of isotretinoin over long periods of time.
The studies that come to the conclusion that isotretinoin stunts growth involve the aforementioned usage, not 20mg/day.
