One Dr. advised me against it, his treatments made my face worse then referred me to another dermatologist that recommends absorica. To be honest I don't want to get on it.

From what I could gather, Absorica contains the same active ingredient as Accutane (Isotretinoin). And I can say from personal experience that it's probably not even worth using as a last resort option if you're any bit concerned about it's potential side effects. The most common symptoms I experienced were severely chapped lips and dehydration more often than not. The chapped lips alone never seemed to heal during treatment because they were always so dry. Needless to say, I felt like I was eating a block of chap stick every other day lol. Outside of that, I personally didn't end up experiencing any of the severe life-altering side effects that others have mentioned here on this forum. But if I were able to go back and reconsider my options, I would never have taken it.

In any case, if you're looking for more personal reviews on the matter, I would recommend taking a look at the discussion thread linked below: Discuss/accutane-long-term-side-effects-191307.htm

Have you considered doing any sort of detox or intestinal cleanse to help sweep away bacteria or yeast that might be attributing to the acne?

I hope this info helps!
