For Acne "I started my treatment early 2009 and continued with it through October of that year. At first, I didn't see much improvement, complaining to my dermatologist for the first few months. What I did notice was the extremely dry skin, awful chapped lips, patches of what looked like eczema but wasn't, muscle pain, bloody noses, a tendency to bruise and bleed more easily, severe loss of appetite, and depression. Also, major sensitivity to all forms of light, especially sun, vision change, and fatigue. When starting my medication, both my gynecologist and optometrist advised against it. It was towards the end of my treatment when I started seeing results. My skin was flawless for about a year. After being off of it for 11 months, my acne is back."

For Acne "I've been on Claravis for over two months now and haven't had a major breakout since the first month. Very, very dry lips and overall dry skin, but my dermatologist recommended Cetaphil for that. Try to stay out of the sun as it does cause your skin to burn easily. Can't wait to finish as it does cause a slight lack of energy."

For Acne "This medicine has a lot of pros and cons. The pro is that your skin will clear almost completely, and the con is that you will have dry lips and palms and joint pain. But I think it's a fair trade."
