I've taken accutane before a few years ago. The result is really good but I'm thinking to start taking this again. Anybody knows where to get it cheaper? It's so expensive. I'm taking doxycycline at the moment. Acne is under control but still have small pimples and many whiteheads.

few years ago and it comes back? Was told by my dermalogist that 80% will not suffer it anymore. only 20% will have reoccurance.
I was told to stop all kind of facial. Just wonder, those black head and white head wont go away if dont do hydrating facial right?

i was on accutane 2 years ago and paid rm7 (or was it 8) per pill. then completed 8 months and was happy.

Unfortunately, it looks like i need to go on it again.. checking to see which dermatologist has it priced best..

Do note the effect of accutane and moderate consumption, check out http://www.acne.org/accutane.html . Better to go natural and maintain facial hygiene

actually i was on 20mg. and i did relapse after 2 years and went back to a dermatologist (this was in 2014).. but a different one then the 1st one cos of logistics. this guy was nearer to my office and also well known. but he refused to let me be on it for long.. said max was only 3months. i practically begged him to give me for the 4th month which he did. [i think that is his strategy la.. give u enough to last for a while and then relapse and make u come back again.. hmm.gif mad.gif

nways.. it has been 2 years since the 2nd time and still doing ok.. only minor and occasional zits. nothing major and i think it is mostly of stress. hope it sticks this time though.

Was on Accutane for last few months. Just got off about 3 weeks ago.
My derm charge the same for 20mg and 10mg. I did 3 months 20mg then 2 months 10mg. RM200 for 30 pills include consultation.

*But my derm prescribe me generic one la. Not the Roaccutane one.

Probably can. But not sure how long you'll have to wait to get your referrals and also probably need your acne to be bad enough for them to prescribe.

thanks for the info, expensive drugs. sweat.gif
I think it's hard to get it in govt hospital, but it's definitely cheaper than private clinic prescription.

Scars need to "modifiy" at cosmetic clinic, but u shd wait and observing whether acne coming bsck or not before u do such "modifications".
