"i&#039;m currently on atretin, which is the same thing as accutane. the only side effect i&#039;ve had is the chapped lips but i also stay out of the sun a lot because you can really get bad sunbur. i&#039;m only really 2 months in so i still get a few breakouts but they go away very quickly. my skin is looking so much better. i looked like corn on the cob before the treatment but now i look so much clearer. i don&#039;t regret taking this medication at all. i recommend it for anyone with acne troubles."
