Awful
I just asked chatGPT what effects
Roaccutane
has on the brain. It told me that it causes damage to the hypothalamus, hippocampus, prefrontal cortex and serotonin system, and is commonly linked to depression and anxiety. SO… how am i supposed to deal with all of this?

Hormonal Acne - Something finally worked for me!
I suffered from acne pretty badly around the age of 11 for a few years, took
Roaccutane
, it cleared up, medication did it's job. Fast forward to now, I'm 30 ish, lovely basic good quality skincare, no smoking, alcohol, good diet (or so I thought!). Not on any contraceptives.

Taking a medication called
roaccutane
20years ago has ruined my life. It has damaged my brain and i’ve been living with these awful side effects all through my 20s and 30s.

Could I have cirrhosis?
I have sometimes taken flu meds and
roaccutane
along with these meds. My doctor said it's nothing to worry about. But high direct bilirubin worries me. How do you think?

Over 60 with scars.
I then went on
Roaccutane
which cleared it up. It then returned in my late 40s when I went through the menopause. I went on
Roaccutane
which cleared it up for good. In the 70s there wasnt much awareness of skin problems. Of course, no internet, no support groups.

Supplements while taking Accutane?
Hi I'm looking to get some advice I'm starting Accutane for my skin and I was wondering if anyone has taken it? I'm trying to research what supplements to take while on it (side affects can include higher cholesterol, inflamed liver) and I can't find much. If anyone has any ideas I'd really appreciate

2nd month of roaccutane and acne’s got 10 x worse
Hi there, I’m in my 6th, nearly 7th week of taking

Random Vent I guess ?
So I’m really scatterbrained right now … so this may be all over the place so bare with me. For a while now I’ve been wanting to “focus on me” by spending a lot of time alone avoiding people. Not that I’m the most social person in the world… but I have friends and go out. The thing is, I find that my

Isotretinoin (Roaccutane) possible trigger of Hashimotos?
I was looking through an old diary and realised I got diagnosed with hashimotos 6 weeks after coming off the drug
roaccutane
. After a bit of googling I did find a study suggesting maybe
roaccutane
is an environmental trigger for hashimotos.

Armour Thyriod (blood work results)
Hello, Could someone kindly let me know if I should increase Armour Thyroid from 45 to 60mg? I do supplement with liquid iron, d3, and magnesium spray daily. Since three weeks ago started to feel fatigue and depression. FYI at that time I started Accutane 40mg once daily for acne. Today the dermatologist

Isotretinoin (roaccutane) making skin worse?
My daughter has been on 40mg for just over 4 weeks and her skin has become much worse. It's a bit dry but she doesn't have any other symptoms and seems fine on it apart from the massive breakouts all over her cheeks and chin. She's 17 and it's making her miserable. We are seeing the consultant next
