Accutane week 1


Started Accutane Today!

I've finally started my Accutane treatment today (03/03/15) and I am very excited. My doctor has started me off with 60 mg of Myorisan (genetic form of accutane) everyday. I have to take three of the 20mg capsules they gave me a day and my birth control that they put me on to insure I do not get pregnant (though I don't plan on it). I will be writing another review in about a week or so to keep you guys updated on how my journey is going and if i'm getting any side effects :)

I haven't started accutane but ive decided to...

I haven't started accutane but ive decided to about a month ago. I have been suffering with acne since I was about 13/14 and it's been an on and off battle with it. Right now I am 17 and a senior in highschool, I'm really embarrassed to go out and do things since I have really bad cysts on my face, I don't look up at people in public ( I always try to keep my face down) and I don't take a lot of pictures. I want to change this now because prom is coming up and graduation an im heading to college in 5 months, and I really want to be the old outgoing me that I used to be. I'm just really scared of the side effects that they made me read up on, but so far nobody on this site has experienced those really bad side effects. I'd like to keep you guys updated on my journey since I'm not comfortable enough to post these pictures any where else. By the way, I plan to start my accutane journey next week on Feb. 27 :)

Provider Review

Dr. Gagnon

Great doctor, wanted me to start earlier and I should have but I was nervous about the side effects. He's very helpful in making sure I'm comfortable with everything and that I'm aware of what is going to happen.
