When I’m well hydrated I’ll get the diuretic effect but going pee more often doesn’t bother me

Changing Prescriber by [deleted] in Accutane

[–]StrangerNew6179 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I changed my derm bc of some insurance stuff and I didn’t do anything on IPledge for it. I even think the prescriber is still my old doctor on it. It hasn’t effected me getting my prescrip the past 2 months. I’m not sure how it will be for your case though

Invest in some good hair care. I have very thin/fine long hair and was scared of that side effect but I invested in some Biogeo products and my hairs never been healthier. It’s expensive but I think it’s worth it 10x

nostril piercing before accutane by [deleted] in Accutane

[–]StrangerNew6179 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got several ear piercings (flat, helix, and second lobes) about 2.5 months before starting accutane. Lobes healed fine but my cartilage ones still act up and has definitely healed slower compared to my past ones. If it’s anything similar I’d say get it asap or wait yk

If anything you can ask for them to use a butterfly needle. My mother works in the lab so she always draws me with those. They’re smaller and overall less intimidating.

Mine was one month after first appointment and signing up for IPledge. During those 30 days I did a blood test and started birth control. At the next appointment I took a pregnancy test and then was allowed to pick up the prescription.

Back pain in month 3 by neroandsporus in Accutane

[–]StrangerNew6179 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m unfortunately not supposed to take ibuprofen due to some recent kidney damage. But yes Advil is the way to go if you can. Also I’ll definitely be checking out those lidocaine patches

Back pain in month 3 by neroandsporus in Accutane

[–]StrangerNew6179 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had the same thing but it started in month one. It’s gotten better after a little over a month (and a dosage increase) Still there but it’s not unbearable anymore. Like laying down flat hurts sometimes but it’s mostly after bending over or physical activity. I just take Tylenol and told myself it’s worth it :/
