I have an acne for about 5 years and nothing helped me during this period, so I finally decided to take Accutane and finish this. First question: Has anyone been on Accutane while in med school and did it have negative effect for your brain and memory?
Accutane may have a lot of side effects, but the only thing I'm worried about is life-long side effects after I finish my course. I found some cases in google of life long side effects post accutane (joint pain, depression, muscle pain) so I'm bit worried now. My dermatologist told me that ussualy people get dry lips and skin, but she also had couple serious cases which she didn't want to tell me. So second question: Does anyone experience any side effects after the treatment? Now it's my 2nd week on accutane (40mg per day) and I have only dry lips, nothing more. Share with me your experience and knowledge. Thanks.
