Accutane 20-40mg daily for 3-6 months.

From what I've heard zinc aspartate helps with acne too.

Yep, I know many who have used it just for 4 months...cleared everything up.

I also know a few who used it just once, and never got acne again. On the other hand, I have read some scary studies on the stuff. I wouldn't rule it out in my own "personal book" though, as I know many who have had great success with it.

Most people reporting sides take too high a dose. Once the low dose trials came out showing 20mg daily worked, reported sides went down. Accutane is a miracle drug. I did a 4 month run at 20mg daily while on cycle and my acne cleared up 90%. I got labs afterwards and everything was normal.

Low-dose isotretinoin in the treatment of acne vulgaris.

Amichai B, Shemer A, Grunwald MH.
Huzot Clinic of Clalit Health Services, Ashkelon, Israel.

BACKGROUND: The efficacy of isotretinoin at 0.5 to 1.0 mg/kg per day in the treatment of acne is well established and considered safe, although it is sometimes not easily tolerated because of its cutaneous side effects. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of low-dose isotretinoin in the treatment of acne. METHODS: In this prospective, noncomparative, open-label study, 638 patients, both male and female, with moderate acne were enrolled and treated with isotretinoin at 20 mg/d (approximately 0.3-0.4 mg/kg per day) for 6 months. The patients were divided into two age groups: 12 to 20 and 21 to 35 years old. Patients were evaluated at 2-month intervals by means of clinical and laboratory examinations. A 4-year follow-up was also carried out. RESULTS: At the end of the treatment phase, good results were observed in 94.8% of the patients aged 12 to 20 years, and in 92.6% of the patients aged 21 to 35 years. Failure of the treatment occurred in 5.2% and 7.4% of the two groups, respectively. Twenty-one patients dropped out of the study because of lack of compliance, and another patient discontinued participation because of a laboratory side effect. During the 4-year follow-up period, relapses of the acne occurred in 3.9% of the patients aged 12 to 20 years and in 5.9% of the patients aged 21 to 35 years. Elevated serum lipid levels (up to 20% higher than the upper limit of normal value) were found in 4.2% of the patients and abnormal (<twice the upper limit of normal values) liver tests were observed in 4.8%. LIMITATIONS: This was a noncomparative, open-label study. CONCLUSION: Six months of treatment with low-dose isotretinoin (20 mg/d) was found to be effective in the treatment of moderate acne, with a low incidence of severe side effects and at a lower cost than higher doses.

I'm currently in my 4th month using 50mg of Accutane.

I had a bad out break in the 2nd and 3rd week but literally have not seen anything since.

super drug!

Over the years, natural acne solutions have proven to be effective, safe and do not involve any type of spin-offs. It may seem easy though one must have self discipline and the will power to fully understand what natural acne solutions really offer.
