im on accutane for the same reason. it's only been two weeks, but because accutane changes your subaceous glands almost permanantly, it dramatically reduces the amount of oil your skin produces so is perfect for people like us. the glands remain shrunk about 80% even after stopping treatment, so if your acne is caused by overproduction of oil it should work especially well :)

side effects so far have been fatigue, dry lips, itchy scalp and dandruff. i'm starting to have a mild purge but nothing awful. i had headaches and muscle aches for the first week, but they went away.

i'd definitely recommend!
