What Dosage of Accutane Should I Use to Reduce Sebum?

I use what i call the Lo Dose regimen, 10mg on Mondays and Thursdays to start. This reduces oil and has no side-effects that I have seen. I also like to use OC8, an oil control gel.

The dosage of Accutane will be determined be the prescribing physician.  Patients do not get to determine their dosage.  It will be up to the prescribing doctors experience with the medication not what the patient tells them to prescribe.  This is a great forum to ask other experts for their experience, but ultimately patients need to understand the Internet is no substitute for a one on one doctor patient visit.

maintenance therapy   post  accutane  treatment--- easiest  is  20 mg  once    a week !!!

Isotretinoin (eg. Accutane) is very effective for the management of excessively oily skin.  I often find 10mg 1-2x a week may be all that is needed to control your oily skin.

It is best to consult with your Board Certified Dermatologist, so they can work with you to find the proper dose.  Also, you want to make sure you are a good candidate, have periodic lab monitoring for side-effects, and, for females, to adhere to proper pregnancy prevention.
