[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother became severely depressed from taking Accutane. Once he came off it, the depression lifted. He has had depression ever since (now in his 30s). I don't think the Accutane single handed caused his depression but it certainly precipitated it and increased the severity. If you have a history of depression in your family I would be very cautious. [/quote] I recently went to the derm to discuss treatment for my (adult, hormonal) acne, and I read the book that comes with Accutane--depression and suicidal thoughts/attempts are listed as possible side effects. Since I have a history of depression, I decided against Accutane. Plus, if you're a girl, you have to be on two forms of BC and pledge not to get pregnant while on it. You have to have two clear pregnancy tests before you can get a prescription, and a monthly test to get a refill. It might work really well, but it's got some serious side effects and its not for everyone. [/quote]
