Accutane dose
There are many ways to dose Accutane. Some prefer higher doses and shorter treatment times, while other dermatologists prefer lower doses and longer treatment times. The dose also depends on how the patient tolerates the medication, especially the chapped lips, dry skin, etc. The typical dose is 1mg/kg/day for about 5 months.
