Accutane (Isotretinoin) Week Six
February 26th, 2008
WARNING: Accutane is a serious drug that can have long term effects on your liver, skin, joints and more. Try the Acne Products out there first. We recommend Murad Acne Complex.
It has been a month and a half!
Dry Skin: My hands are soooooooo dry! I need to start moisturizing them often, it is pretty bad. My skin is pretty much the same level of dry except for the hands (which are noticeably worse). My nose is usually really oily and it is so dry too! However, this is good because I think my black heads are drying up and disappearing!
Breakouts: My face broke out pretty bad…actually, really bad. It flared up around my chin and around my hair line, i don’t know why = ( My dermatologist told me it would flare up when I started this second month but this is a lot worse than I thought it was going to be. I also have difficulty not touching it which probably makes it so much worse… I am getting my period soon so maybe this is why this is happening? We shall see…
Lips: My lips are OUT OF THIS WORLD! I tend to chew on my inner lip and sometimes a little bit of the visible lip and that just DESTROYS them…i really don’t recommend doing that! They are really really really really really dry and if you don’t moisturize them, then it is easy to just pull them off (which makes you want to kill yourself afterwards). They bleed if you pick at them and then look raw and terrrrrible…jeez, just keep them moisturized! lol
Body: I feel pretty good…nothing really different. I just get really thirsty and dehydrated a lot easier than I used to so I try to drink water as often as I can.
I need to get my pregnancy test soon but I still have 2 more weeks before this month is over sooo I don’t really know when I need to have my appointment and get my new prescription? Gotta find that out! Cmon face, clear uppppppppp…..

I started Accutane three weeks ago today, and it’s so helpful to read your entries. I know what you mean about the dry lips - mine seems to be okay if I apply chapstick every hour, but then if I am not so diligent for a day they get AWFUL.
I’m excited to get to the point where my blackheads start to go away. Right now it seems like I have even MORE of then than before!
