Reply To: Accutane Side Effects

After 1 week of accutaine the joint pain occurred, then we tested for Lyme and strep…which came back negative. Then I called the dermatologist to rule it out and he said that it definitely is a side effect but it should go away. Well almost two years later the pain still comes and goes periodically. Pain management doctor, after testing and his own research, agrees that it came from accutaine and hopes that over time it will disappear. The acne cure was not worth it, acne came back after all.
