<p>Ditto. I believe, though, that statistically 70% never need more than one dose.</p>
<p>Daughter is now taking a second round of Accutane. She had a year between rounds and then her skin started breaking out again. She hesitated to take Accutane the first time but jumped right in this time around. She had no side effects the first time and as of mid-round this time. Her skin looks better each time I see her - home for monthly doctor visits - and she always seems happier when she looks good - as did my son who also took Accutane, with minimal side effects (dry lips, nose, eyes). Any changes in behavior/personality at this house were on the positive side. I’m truly grateful that the drug is an option for those who can take it because nothing else worked. We have a good dermatologist who is knowledgeable and cautious; he says that too plays a part in prescribing the drug. </p>
<p>Good luck to your son, SteveMA. I hope he experiences few side effects and has great skin in several months.</p>
