Answer 1

Well, I got accutane in high school (about 8 or  10 years ago) and it worked well. I don't remember the appt much, but he just looked at my face and said I was a good canidate for it.  I would be cautious if I were you.  Accutane works wonders for acne, but it can cause depression.  Seriously.  It also can cause seious (like freakish) birth defects on a fetus if a woman who is taking accutane gets pregnant.  ( I don't know about sperm from a male, though).  As long as you're not sexually active and are on the watch for depression, good luck with it!
