Too much Accutane?
Published (2009-11-03 10:36:00)
I meant there is not a way to stimulate the sebaceous glands without risking a relapse of acne, which presumably you don't want. Both testosterone and progesterones are major factors in acne. Patients who take these medications (for birth control, sex change etc) often experience acne. Eloise.

When it comes to acne, skip the drugs. First and foremost drink lots of purified water and stay away from or limit the use of carbonated beverages and alcohol. Many of us with acne problems continue to drinks all of these sodas or drinks that contain a lot of acid, colors, etc. Soda can really mess up the face. Leave all sodas and other drinks on the market alone and stick to only purified water. Try these waters - Poland Springs, Volvic,...

Thanks for responding once again. However, i respectfully disagree with you saying that there is no way to stimulate the sebaceous glands internally. I have read that these medications can increase sebaceous glands.. 1. testosterone given to prepubertal males 2. Progesterones with androgenic properties such as medroxyprogesterone, levonorgestrel, Phenothiazines

Accutane 16 wks not working
Published (2009-10-29 12:08:00)
Your derm probably will not keep you on longer than 24 weeks on that kind of dose. I was on for 24 weeks and I was forced to be taken off. I begged to be on longer and she said no. My face broke out 2 weeks after stopping accutane and i start my second course in 1 month. She put me on Differin until then.

Published (2009-11-01 12:22:00)
Hi! Ive been on Accutane a few times during the years and I had not the worst type of acne but still bad. My skin got clear in about a week to. I was also put on 40 mg a day initially. I then lowered the dose myself because I was afraid of the side effects and didnt want the dry skin. The dose that was fine for me was actually as low as 30 mg a week!!! That´s quite a differance!! So i don´t see why your doctor would increase your dose to as...

Hi. The usual dose for Accutane is 1mg X kg patients bodyweight/per day. 165lbs is about 75kg so the standard dose for a patient this weight would be 75mg. However, 5mg tablets are not available in all countries and it would be normal to prescribe 80mg to a patient weighing 75mg. Side effects are generally dose-related, but 5mg would not make a big difference.

No. Get Dermabrasion. This is not to be confused with micro Micro-guard Micro-k Micro-k 10 -dermabrasion which removes the very top layer of dead surface skin cells from the face Face pain . Dermabrasion is a coarser method, which removes further layers. Almost as if you were to rub sandpaper on your face Face pain (which you shouldn't!) But the sandpaper imagery ...

Like I've said to others before, I do not like the use of drugs for the treatment of acne. I use Zero Zitz Emergency Power. I also suggest Zero Zitz Original Astringent and Zero Zitz Kreamy Kleanser. Using these three products, you will see a huge improvement. I did. I buy it online from www.myvitanet.com because you usually can't find it in most stores. Another product I like is ...

talk to your doctor about accutane. It works for more then 80% who try it the first course.
The 20 percent usually need more then 1 course(2-3).

Hi. Acne is caused by a sensitivity to the effects of androgens (male hormones like testosterone, found in male and female Condoms Female condoms Female sexual dysfunction bodies). Androgens stimulate the sebaceous glands in the skin. Bacteria feed off this sebum, blocking the pores and resulting in inflammed acne spots.
Unfortunately, a healthy diet is not enough to ...

Hi.
Acne is caused by raised levels of androgens such as testosterone -common in people your age. Androgens stimulate the sebaceous glands in the skin. Bacteria on the skin feeds off this sebum, blocks the pores and leads to inflammed spots. Unfortunately, a good diet and drinking water is not enough to clear acne as it will have no effect on androgens and sebum production.
