Acne
"23 year old male.  Ive Had mild-moderate acne on/off since high school.  Tried everything else so decided to give accutane a shot.  For me, I took 40mg the first month and went up to 60mg for the remaining 5 months for a total of 6 months.  Months 1-4, acne got better gradually with breakouts here or there.  Months 5 and 6 my skin was completely clear.  Dryness was the only side effect i experienced. I would recommend this drug.  If you are frightened by the negative effects some people have had, I would say remain on a lower dose and be patient. The bad side effects supposedly increase at higher dosages.   Another Note: I weigh 160 lbs and the target MG for me was 72MG a day. I did less and still saw results"
