What Are The Long Term Side Effects Of Taking Accutane?
Is Accutane as harmful and have long side effects as I have seen posted on the internet. My daughter is almost 16 and has acne not severe but has tried about 5 different creams already and also anti-biotics as well. Her dematologist and pediatrician have recommend she go on Accutane but I am nervous about the side effects of DNA long term change and long term side effects to if and when she has a child long after she is off of Accutane as well as stomach issues I have heard about. I am a concerned parent who wants to help her daughter with her acne but do not want to harm her down the road.
