will 10 mg of accutan stop acne, during a cycle?

you could start with that, but the recommended dosage is 15-20mg/day.

Dont take accutane just to try and prevent acne,
Accutane is a very strong dangerous compound that can have devastating effects on the liver.
When doctors prescribe accutane there patients have to have frequent bloodwork done to make sure its not destroying the liver.

I was prescribed accutane when I was younger and from my personal exp ill tell you that like shifty said, it should not be taken just to stop side effects of a cycle. This stuff really goes to work on the body with tremendous side effects.

lots of showers, saunas, anything to cleanse the skin.

try nizoral shampoo on the skin.

occasional light sunbed use.

If worst case they start popping up look into an antibiotic b4 accutane.

It would help, I'm doin 40mg rite now, and my dose got bumped up to 40 on even days and 80 on odd days. It works just a pain in the ass to get every month.
