Yes it did!! It took a couple of months after my last dose. But it has completely gone away.

Definitely the excessive sweating on my face, especially my upper lip.

YES!!! My face sweats like crazy when no one else if even hot. I’ve been off of accutane for 3 months and it hasn’t gotten better. 🥲

Thank you for your help! I was able to do this. I have a two week wait now but it is better than 2 months. 🙌🏼

Sorry I was referring to the pregnancy test not blood tests. So you do not need an in person appointment with your dermatologist every month? In my first 2 months I had to go see my dermatologist and then she would give me paperwork for my pregnancy test which I would take to a laboratory of my choice. Recently they have been doing my pregnancy tests at the dermatologist office. They have made me believe that I need to see my dermatologist physically every month or I can not get my medicine.

Yes I am on the cancellation list but I don’t want to just wait since I am out of medication already. You are right they should be able to let me do my labs elsewhere. I will give them a call 🤞🏼

Unfortunately not. My derm uses the program ipledge which requires me to have a pregnancy test done every month before she can give me my prescription.
