			<description><![CDATA[
I am trying to convince my son who is suffering from acne to take his prescribed 40 mg Accutane. Yesterday we were talking and he cried about his acne. His fears of hair loss and dry skin are stopping him from taking it. Has anyone had any &#34;really bad&#34; experiences with this? If there is hair loss, does the hair grow back? I&#039;d like to join this forum with his progress if I can convince him to take it. It&#039;s sitting in my kitchen cupboard. Help! We both need some peace of mind....

I have severe acne, have been on several topical medications as well as medications such as accutane and others. Accutane is not an option right now, but is there any other pill form of acne medicine comparable to the results of accutance that would be a good option to look into?

			<title>Accutane - I wondered once your skin clears up, do the little scars from previous acne fade?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[
I am starting Accutane, but I have a lot of red spots on my face from previous acne. I usually use retin A or another OTC treatment to fade these spots, but the DR said not to use those products for the next year (and no more peels). Has anyone had the old spots fade, and has anyone had a peel after Accutane, and what were the results? A year seems like forever to not be able to treat scars from the acne. Thanks

			<description><![CDATA[
I have been on accutane for a few months now and my doctor hasn&#039;t done any pregnancy tests before i started and during my few months on the drug. My doctor gives me a blood test just to check my cholesterol ect, but didn&#039;t do a pregnancy test and told me to start taking the tablets straight away without doing a test. Is this normal or should i demand a test?

I&#039;ve been taking accutane for a couple of months, and in the second month my dermatologist ordered me to take a drug called prednisolone, which is a steroid... After taking it for the first week, I started doing some research about it and it turns out this drug has several possible side effects, including acne... among other including liquid retention, slow healing, weak immune system, etc. Accutane (Isotretinoin), has cleared out my face pretty well in the first months, but after the...

For background, I was prescribed Minocyclin (75 mg/twice a day) after an unsuccessful round of Accutane and Septra. The medication did wonders for my skin! However, after three years, I developed gram-negative folliculitis and needed to get off the medication. My skin was clear for 5 months after stopping the medication, but I have had a resurgence of acne in the past three months. Would it be safe for me to go on Doryx, which is also in the tetracycline family, for 2-3 months having been off...

... and didn&#039;t experience any side effects except dry lips. My dosage was increased to 20mg twice a day and now two weeks into it I have started to experience much more hair loss than normal. Every time I touch my hair it seems like a few strands come out. I called my derm and he told me to stop taking it until he sees me for my 30 day appt in a few days. I am worried that this is permanent and I will continue losing more hair but I also don&#039;t want to have to stop taking the medicine...

			<title>Accutane Dosage Timing?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[
I have a two part question. First, I&#039;m on 60mg/day of accutane in two doses. My breakfast and dinner times vary, so I was wondering if taking the medication between 8-10am and 6-8pm will cause a problem? Sometimes I only have about 8 hours between doses. Also, I eat a very high fiber diet (I&#039;d say 50-65g a day). I read this can cause an issue with certain medications? Do you think this diet is ok with accutane?
