fuck this shit no other way to fix acne on back going to do bloodtests for cholesterol and if its not high ill start taking 10mg a day then increase the next month
 
opinions? you think 10mg would even do something?
 
take 20mg atleast if you have bad acne then 10 mg every 2-3 days for maintenance

Where do you get your accutane from if not a derm?

I get my from QSC but he only sells it in 100 gram quantities which would last 10 lifetimes but it gets old clumpy and unusable after a few months

No so 20mg daily atleast ,even for moderate acne I’d take this,then once that is completely healed I’d do 10mg every 2-3 days for life

20mg for 8 months is enough, for a year and you won’t relapse.

Anyway, the main things to check are LDL, HDL and Triglycerides (very imp).

Ask the lab for these tests - Liver Function Test and Lipid Profile test

i want to do only 10mg because i think it will be enough in my case, when pimples go away do injust keep taking it though?
 
Been on it since 17 days now. I have less pimples and my pores also appear smaller now
That’s very good for only 17 days bro. I’m on day 2 of 20mg. I hope I clear up in 3 months. Been dealing with acne for years I just want to be clear

Take 20mg, it’s already too low. It doesn’t matter when the pimples go away, you have to be on 20mg for 8 months for it to have pernanent effects.

Acne can return if u quit early. 10mg would take twice as long to have permanent effects. Look up accutane cumulative dosage

im thinking of just continue using retin-a for life so as soon as acne stops i stop accutane after 2 weeks or so and just continue with retin-a, what u think? Also do u use retina together with accutane or not?

Accutane and retin-a both will make u purge for a couple of weeks and don’t stop accutane mid course
