"i had severe acne, rosacea and had tried tetracycline antibiotics, duac, differin and dianette to get rid of it with no results- it was that bad i had stopped going out! referred to dermatologist and prescribed isotretinoin at 40mg per day. within 7 days my face had cleared completely. this is like a miracle. my skin is still slightly red from the rosacea but nothing i can&#039;t cover with concealer. 
side effects so far are blurred vision, muscle pains and dry skin and lips- been through 4 tubs of carmex in the four weeks i&#039;ve been on accutane. using cetaphil moisturiser and e45 emollient cleanser. cannot recommend this enough- side effects are annoying but well worth it in the short term in my opinion. wish i&#039;d insisted on this 4 years ago."
