Starting my 6th month with Accutane (Sotret)

Haven't posted anything lately because the situation is the same as the one in my last post. Finally, I can see some improvements! My 6th month will start in 2-3 days.

Since the 1st of July I have been taking 20mg Accutane per day (I switched to roaccutane from sotret, as the last one is not being produced anymore). I haven't experienced any new side effects because of the switching, but I do have a cyst on my left cheek and a pimple on the right one. However, I can say that they started to cure. So I am very happy at the moment.

Since I switched to 20mg from 30mg per day, my fingers stopped peeling and my lips feel better.

In the end of the post, I just want to repeat: don't panic if you can't notice improvements in the first treatment months. As you could see in my case, the treatment took 5 months to notice improvements. Moreover, I heard that there are people who notice them even later. So keep your faith!
