What are you taking the drug for, if you don't mind my asking? Does your doctor know you're experiencing those side-effects? I'd say definitely ask your doctor if there's another prescription that treats your condition since it seems you're approaching the point where the benefits will no longer outweigh the risks. |

Larn, I started taking this right after I turned 17 and stopped medication roughly a year after (acne had entirely cleared!). I experienced some dry skin sensitivity during the first few months as well as muscle weakness. 23 now, and since then I've been diagnosed and treated for major depression and anxiety disorder. IMHO Roaccutane does cause severe hormonal, emotional changes. Whether roaccutane treatment is worthwhile depends on how much your acne is affecting your overall health (social, mental, etc.), but I'd attribute your depression directly to the drug, which can kinda help in willing away the blues. I'm glad I don't have wicked acne scars, but I'm positive the drug tweaked my developing, adolescent biology for the worse. Please take all this into consideration, my friend. |

Is there a difference between Roaccutane and Accutane? My cousin took the latter and it worked wonders for his severe acne. |

same deal, same manufacturer (Roche) of the drug isotretinoin |

dude, stop taking that. sounds like you gotta ask your doc about alternative meds, cuz that many side-effects just aren't gonna be good for a long term treatment. |

K. Well, he seemed to suffer no ill effects, and in fact swears by it. But hey, you never know with this shit. Too bad to hear about youse guys' troubles with it. I have lots of experience with side-effects caused by otherwise godsend drugs, and for me, medical messageboards relating to either illness or specific drug helped me find out some good info... but they can also scare the shit out of you, because they tend to be populated by people that are having troubles. So you're basically hearing an overabundance of horror stories. But I'll stick with any drug if it works, unless my dick stops getting hard. |

Yeah, my older bro took the drug too and seems to have had no problem. My body responds heavily to medication, with initial exposure always being way intense. |

I wrote up lengthy report of my own Roaccutane experience, very very helpful stuff for you, then I deleted it. So let's keep this short, if you feel like you're going to die, it's not worth it, to the trash with it. They got a related topical gel called retin-A that works sort of the same way with less extreme conclusions. You don't get residue in your eyes like you can with the pills. Them pills made my lips crack open and gush blood and turned my face to plastic, so soft and pink. smooth also. Then the pills made my legs stop working, great pain and I had to limp around with umbrella for balance. Doc say it's a rare thing I did and gave me something new for crushing me. A hollow glass wand filled with spicy solution, you rub the wand against the face and it drips. It made all my pimples return just like new! At the grocery store, the cute counter ladies no longer gave me smiles and then one night some stranger at the bar came up to me and called me a heinous beast then laughed to friends. How did they know it was my birthday. Accutane worked great for other folks I know. If you have the kind of acne it's supposed to treat, it will treat it fast and permanently. No need to load your body up with antibiotics for the rest of your life. I gave it all up, and at 23 it began to go away. Bumpy scars and fuzzy eyes. Have you ever watched the show Lucky Louie? Well, probably not. But if you had, you'd know of Louie's wife, that petite brunette number. Guess what.. she provides the voice for none other than that kid on King of Hill, Bobby. That show used to be really funny, I haven't watched any of the newer episodes, no TV you see? Musical Jackets smile. |

I remember before accutane, I tried a topical acne cream that kinda worked, but looked like I had crusty jizz all over my face. It was probably one of the ads at the bottom of this thread. I always wanted to see a sitcom where all the actors either had bad acne or scars. Acne-enthusiasts, turn the pharmy industry on it's ear. |

I took a form of retin-a for a while. Not great..Then I took some amoxicillin type drug and it worked. Many years ago now. They are getting crazy with the side effects these days. I heard one drug commercial that stated some people might find the urge to Gamble. Gambling as a side effect? |
