permanent side effects of accutane
Accutane has permanent side effects. I took Accutane at 30 years old for 3 months. I was a healthy, active woman with no pains. I began to have severe back and joint pain, as well as hair loss. Now, eight years later, the pain continues. It took me out of work full-time. It prohibits most of my activities.
If whilst taking accutane you have any thoughts of harming yourself you must take no further tablets and seek medical advice immediately. Accutane has many potential side effects including dry lips, fragile and sensitized skin, temporary hair loss or an increase in hair growth, muscle or joint pain and mood change. However, this must be balanced against the fact that it is your best hope of a long term remission from acne.
