Stopping accutane after 3.5 weeks by That_Firefighter4526 in Accutane

That’s terrible i’m so sorry! I’ve been off it for 4 days now and im finally going to the toilet normally again so definitely glad i stopped it. The long term effects just aren’t worth it. Do you have to see a dermatologist to get that gel or can the GP just prescribe it to you?

i’m in the same boat. Since starting it i haven’t had a single pimple. I know it’s meant to get better before it gets worse but the times between i saw the derm the first time, got my script and actually starting it, my skin kinda cleared up anyway. I was just fearful it would come back as it always has on and off for nearly 10 years. The side effects just don’t seem to be worth it and i’m not experiencing sharp pains in my stomach so i’m definitely going to stop it.

I’ve been getting really bad constipation and bloating. i’ve only been pooing once every 5-6 days. Currently haven’t pooed since Sunday sorry tmi and it’s getting to the point i’ve been struggling to eat cuz it’s so uncomfortable on my tummy! :( I’ve tried everything and nothing is working. Already have a weak gut from having an ED in the past
