My doc just gave me a script for accutane, at 40mg twice a day, so thats 80mg a day. Is this much really necessary, he said the dosage is based on my weight, but I don't have super serious acne, and I know docs like to go overkill with stuff like that. I'm on alot of shit, and I also figured if I only did 40mg it would last twice as long, and I could go 80 days instead of 40 before I had to have the fucking blood work done on me, which is a pain in the ass...Actually any trip to the docs is a pain in the ass, sometimes u can't even get in and out in two hours and have to delay a meal... ------------------     | ||

i took it about 2 years ago..10 mg 2 X's a day, one pill in morning, one at bed time..side effects were minimal, slight dry skin was about it..i weighed about 175 at the time. I never had severe acne, just stubborn persistent zits..maybe one or two at a time and oily skin. used it for about 6 months and the only effect i had was NO MORE ZITS !!! I had friends that used it also, in varying strengths with excellent results as well. Mostly had the same sides, dry skin, dry lips, dry nose but everyone i knew that used it was glad they did. Since then, i've used Primo, Deca and Winny shots with no problems... | ||

YEAH BRO, 80 mgs per day is just too much..i have never gone over 40mg per day and I think this is the ideal dosage....make sure that you take this shit after you eat something high in fat, it works much better this way... | ||

sup blond myth, you're from the anabolic extreme board, i think. but anyway, that is way too much. i took that shit a couple years ago, and i didn't take that much, and my acne wasn't that bad. i would go with 40 mg's a day, and when he gave you a script, did he take blood? just check your liver pretty often, don't want anything happening that can be avoided. ------------------ | ||

I am taking 40mg 2x day. Into week six. Sides seems to be more tolerable now. Approx. 1mg/kg of bodyweight is the correct dosage. | ||

I am using 20mg/day and it has removed some pretty serious acne. I have been on it for 2 months. ------------------ | ||

Im currently on my 5th month of accutane and my face looks like a babies ass. No pimples or oily skin but the sides are a pain in the ass. Anyway, 80 mgs is probably to much, I started at 40mgs a day and for the past 4 months I've been on 60 mgs a day and Im 181lbs. If you want, start with what the doc said, and if the sides start getting pretty bad go down to 40 or 60 a day. The worst that happened to me was for the first two months my joints were sore to the point where I wasn't getting a good work out but it was nothing that a little deca couldn't fix. Hope this helps bro. | ||

I took accutane at that dose also.My skin wasnt too bad, but ill tell you it cleared it right up and it hasnt come back 4 months post treatment. The doc said the dose was due to my body weight...not too many sides just get some lotion and eye drops if you have contacts especially(which i do). Youll have bloodwork doen while youre on it and i was on a cycle at the time and everything checked out normal with blood tests. | ||

I've been on accutane many times and I suggest going with what the doc says. He didnt go to school for all those years for nothing. What are you gonna do when your half way through and it hasnt done shit for you ? The doc will make you wait a year maybe more before he puts you on it again. You feel like having fucked up skin that long before you can even start treatment again Do it right the first time. | ||

I took 80mg a day and it made all depressed, lowered it to 40mg and feel fine with a clear face. | ||

At 80mg/day I have tolerable sides and it seems like they are more managable now. Labello lip balm and vit E gel are doing wonders! | ||

I can agree with that but he also does not know that I am on 50mg of d-bol a day along with 1500mg of test per week, along with insulin, T3, Pizotifen, Proscar, Prevacid, and nolvadex. I think he would lower the dosage, if he knew that, or he might just tell me to go fuck myself.

That is exactly why my doctor only gave me 20mg/day. He also gives me 400mg/wk of deca/cyp and 25mg/day of Oxandrolone. ------------------ | ||

hey man email me, since I'll only be taking half then I can sell you half my script. So that would be 40mg a day, or 40 tabs at a time... ------------------ |
