does accutane make you lose height and would glucosamine fix this?

[Giga Mogger]

I’m experiencing joint pain on low dose accutane, would glucosamine help replenish my joints / cartilage in my spine and make me taller?

I know glucosamine helps retain morning height but I’m asking more specifically whether this would counter act the joint pain / height loss (if any) from accutane

you do not experience height loss from accutane. your groth plates might just close.

Muscle/joint pain is an sideeffect of this drug and you should report to your dermatologist and ask for help or his recommendations
