Secondly, I was on Accutane as well. And yes, there are some pretty crappy side effects, as well as having to go in every two weeks for blood tests. I had severe dry lips and I got random nosebleeds every now and then. But the shit works. Not everyone gets depressed, in fact, there is no proof saying accutane does or doesn't cause depression. All the side effects are listed in the stuff you get when you start it.


I had bad acne since I was 13, and didnt start Accutane till I was 16. If I could go back in time, I would have started it way earlier.
