My cousin tried Accutane and worked wonders for him. However you can only use it for a limited time, so he had to get another prescription from another doctor and fill it with another pharmacy - not a very wise idea but if you're desperate go ahead.
I had mild acne my sophomore year of high school. I tried proactiv for about a month because my mom was using it and it had worked for her, however it really irritated my skin especially the toner - it was still very subtle in fixing my blemishes. So if you have sensitive skin.. i recommend that you don't use it. Murad, is great if you have sensitive skin; but i have not tried it personally. I use differin and used a gentle neutrogena cleanser.. worked wonders for me. |

However you can only use it for a limited time, so he had to get another prescription from another doctor and fill it with another pharmacy - not a very wise idea but if you're desperate go ahead. According to my sources, one takes Accutane for about 6 months, and if it recurs, take it for another month. Usually it's only recommended for severe cases of acne - not just random pimples and whatnot. Pimples are just blemishes that occur either from puberty or not taking care of your skin. That's why it's important to cleanse your face thoroughly and take care of it. Oh yea and my boyfriend didn't even get a prescription - he got it overseas lol. And it was $1 a pill in Asia. It's probably much more expensive here. Oh man, ProActiv used to be more costly - $40+ for the bundle. Now it's like $20 or less. |

Yeah, as regulated as Accutane is, they won't take you off until you're done. Or if you do stop, you can get another round of it (for lack of better phrasing). And I only pay $15 a month because it's generic, so $1 a pill would be more expensive. I have a friend who paid like $300 a month for it, though, which is absurd. |
