[quote=Anonymous] My 15yr. old is finally on Accutane after 2 years of trying everything else and cutting down certain foods. Doctor started her on a 30mg. dose with monthly check ups and blood work. It's been 3 months and we haven't seen a lot of changes, except for the back and chest. No side effects either, except dry lips, which is very common. We're on a 60mg daily dose now and really hopeful of starting to see the Cystic acne disappear. My sister did Accutane in her late 20s, She's 40 now and she wished she had done it sooner. She had terrible acne in high school and college years. She was a big influence/success story for us to consider going forward with it. Dermatologist will start you on other meds before considering Accutane so I do think 13 might be very young. Consult a dermatologist with experience administering isotretinoin. [/quote]
