[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oral meds for acne can have some pretty strong side effects. [b]My friend's son got ulcerative colitis from discontinuing oral acne meds.[/b] It has been a rough road. The parents were fixated on the fact that the son needed perfect skin. I live in a college town. The wealthy kids all have perfect skin. The poorer kids have normal teen skin with some acne. I always feel like the poorer kids are lucky.[/quote] Yikes! Do you know which med caused this?[/quote] This makes no sense. According to the NIH, "Experts aren’t sure what causes ulcerative colitis but think genes, abnormal immune reactions, the microbiome, and the environment play a role." Discontinuing oral acne medications would not cause an inflammatory disorder. https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/digestive-diseases/ulcerative-colitis#:~:text=Ulcerative%20colitis%20is%20a%20chronic,ages%20of%2015%20and%2030.[/quote]
