For Acne "We are disappointed. My 14-year-old son has taken 40 mg 1x/day for 18 days, and his skin is worse than ever. He seems more moody than normal, and his lips are super chapped (I feel like the chapped-lip police with my chapstick in hand). We really hoped for results of any kind with his cystic acne. We are going to try a higher dose after he gets the blood test in a week or so. He is discouraged. The cost of the higher dosage is almost prohibitive. Our insurance doesn't cover meds because we have a high deductible, but we feel that clearing up his acne is important for his self-esteem. It seems criminal to charge so much for meds."

For Acne "I am now in my 10th week on Amnesteem, and my face is smoother than a baby's bottom! I feel great. Super dry all over, but it's worth it!!!"

For Acne "I've been on this medication for a week and I know what you're thinking, skip this review but DON'T!!!! I've always had bad acne and while I've already seen it improve my acne (I turn 25 next month), the side effects are NOT worth it. It's made me experience suicidal ideation off and on since beginning it, it's made me paranoid about a lot of things and people. I've been so nauseous constantly that I've already lost three pounds, my appetite is so suppressed that I can't even force myself to eat three times a day. I've been having intense anger outbursts, which is not like me AT ALL. This is me after six days on 40mg. I love that it's clearing my face, but I cannot justify a medication that makes me want to kill myself. This has been terrible!"
