Hi, I just wanted to say that ive been on roaccutane for 4 months and am now 100% acne clear at the moment. I started on 40mg per day, and after 6 days i had no grease on my skin at all. I didnt get worsening of acne, red face or any of the side-effects that put most people off. What i did get was a bloody awful urine infection. Cystits. My gp gave me some antibiotics, which took the worse part away, but it never felt right for months. My gp wouldnt treat me for it after as he siad there was no bacteria showing in my urine. It was soo bad i almost came off roaccutane. Anyway i dont know how i got through it but i did. I really cant believe how amazing it is on the skin. I never had any breakouts at all. Infact my skin completely cleared after a few days, and has remaind acne and grease free since. I cant believe that i dont even have to wash my hair every day, its clean and fresh feeling now. It wasnt easy, but im well unlucky so no one else will prob get what i got (cystitis). I would say to anyone thinking of taking roa, just do it, but only if you really feel you need to. xxx
 
Hey, your post was very inspiring, I've just started roaccutane and I'm hoping and praying that it will free me of my acne. However, I'm a bit worried cause ive been taking it for a week and a half and so far i feel exactly the same and my skin has steadily worsened. i know that an initial break out is possible so im trying to be brave but its hard! I've also noticed that my hair is greasier than usual... is that weird?
 
I dont think roaccutane could make your hair greasier, my grease was gone within a week of starting roa. You will be sooooo happy when you've finished your treatment.Good luck!!!!!
