“Dr. prescribing me a steroid while on accutane”

Accutane: Undecided

Cost: $100
Pain: Severe
Accutane satisfaction: Poor1 Star Rating: Poor
I recommend my Accutane provider: Name not provided
Why: Overall I have faith that this will get better. However I came into this treatment not expecting to breakout like this.. If your acne is not sever then I would recommend staying on the topicals..
Seeking help:

So my Dr. said he was going to prescribe me a steroid to help with these chronic breakouts.. Is this safe?? just curious..
Review of Accutane:

Hello, I am a 26 year old male and I'm on my 3rd week of my accutane treatment for my acne problem.

The breakouts that this medication has caused are Horrific!! I called my Dr. and told him that the breakouts were unbareable and was thinking of quitting the treatment especially since I had a family reunion coming up.. I hadnt seen my family in years so did not even want to join the rest of the family because of bad I looked.

Very harsh breakouts come with this treatment so I suggest you really think about this very seriously before making a move.. Stay on Topicals if your acne is not severe..
