so about 2 months ago I visited a dermatologist who prescribed me to take isotretinoin (accutane) 10mg a day.
I immediately researched that dose and turned out to be a really minimal dose and will take forever to see results if even possible, I then selfishly decided to make it 20mg a day which is also still very minimal but more affective , saw really subtle results in a month.
About 3 days ago I decided to make it 40mg which is the standard dose for someone weighing 65 kgs and reaching cumulative dose in about 6 months.
But I'm a bit worried because the doctor might have gave me 10 mg on purpose for something I don't know , my blood test all turned out to be good and ready to use medicine .
Btw doctor asked me to visit him again after finishing a month on 10mg isotretinoin a day but I couldn't,
I did that move thinking that he would've probably prescribed it for me but in a stronger dose but firstly needed to see side effects, what are your thoughts
