I was on Accutane for 27 days. I had to stop because of muscle weakness and erectile dysfunction. It has been a month now since I stopped taking it but seems like the erectile dysfunction and muscle weakness are not going away. I would like to ask is there anyone who has experienced the same symptoms and recovered later?

Accutane has been known to lower testosterone levels in some people that take it, and it been suggested that this should be added to the expected side effects list.

That said, after a month, three would usually be some improvement. What has your doctor advised?

Are you on any other medications?
