People who have been on Roaccutane / on it.

Ive tried loads of acne pills, never roaccutane though - i currently don't use any, but my back is still acnefied big time. Get these massive spots on my nose too. I just dose my face in benzol peroxide now
 
its a nasty drug which has to be monitored carefully through pathology test as it is very toxic!
 
I was on it for ~18 months - had a blood test every month, not cool!

OP - sorry I didn't reply last night was recording, will be about this evening!
 
Just taken my first dose....no desire to kill myself yet. Does your actual skin get very dry or is it just your lips?
 
Varies from person to person, but it's likely it will be the whole skin.

Think on a 1 year course you can expect to shed the whole of you face skin several times.
 
i work in health insurance and have some idea about this treatment but the sheddinbg of skin constantly is just not a nice thought!
 
Would be cool if I could shed it all at once and just step out of it......yes its a quiet day at work today and my mind is wandering.

Will add some of you spotty mofos later for advice about how best to not look like I lepper over the coming months.
 
Did most people find that after the treatment the spots were away and stayed away?

Not for me, I had 2 further courses after my first, but they were of a much lower dosage. No idea what that will have done to my body, but even after that I'm still taking anti-biotics.

I think this is my last effort tbh, after this course of ant-biotics I'm given up with them, if the acne comes back fair do's I'll just have to live with them and feel mega down about them all the time.
