    Question Will accutane prevent?

    In the past I had some pretty bad acne that covered my back for quite some time. I took 5 months of accutane and its all gone now except some scaring. i want to take a cycle of 500mg cyp,30mg dbol but i dont know if the acne will come back or does accutane get rid of it for good. thanks for info

    dont do a deca/dbol cycle dbol is very androgenic so go with tbol if you are looking for less sides if you are going to use test it is androgenic as well but try to keep blood levels as stable as possible to prevent acne sides..it might be unavoidable during pct but that varies by person

    accutane stays in your system for a long time. like 1-2 years after being off of it. you shouldnt have to worry to much tho everyone is different.i usually break out bad during post cycle and i have been 100 clear so far. about 11 days into it. i took accutane over the winter during the last pct. im thinking that it could have something to do with current successful pct.

    I think one guy can have severe acne and do accutane with sucsess and cycle after that with minimal acne while others may get acne anyways..

    I think it's smart not to dicontiune accutane once the acne has cleared up, but continue to use it a little longer so that the effect stays longer in the system... anyone agree with that?

    I'm on accutane now and it has cleared up (about 6 weeks into it now). Just started a test e and eq cycle. I really hope accutane will prevent acne from comeing back. Last time I broke out awhile after pct!

    I'm going to do the shit for like a year straight. Well, I skip days here and there... but I plan on doing it right through my cycle... and hopefully to help me avoid tren acne, which is the only acne I've had to really deal with.

    Yea im righ behind you at week 5 of accutane. I am currently off cycle. Things are looking good, everything is clearing up.
    I am starting my TEST E, tbol, deca cycle next month, and I worry if I should complete accutane first, then start, or do my cycle durring accutane....

    I used to have pretty messed up acne, on back chest and face, i took accutane for like 7 months, now acne is completely gone. I'm also 3 weeks into PCT and i just experienced a couple of breakouts, nothing big though, and during cycle my face was even better than before.
    My cycle was Test prop 500mgs/wk, Deca 400mgs/wk
    good gains!; )

    prop at 500/wk, were u shooting ED?

    I've had acne since age 15 (now 21). Last year my acne was getting better as I was taking minocycline. I than took test & deca for roughly 8 weeks till November. Acne was coming back so I went back on minocycline. Wasn't going away, so I went onto Accutane from Jan-June which made it come out really bad! Now acne is all cleared up with miner scares on shoulder. Would like to go back onto a cycle... Any suggestions...

    im in a similar situation guys, never had "severe" acne, but always struggled with very oily skin. im going to keep accutane on hand in case during cycle or pct things get nasty. will only be using at a very low dose, 10mg ed or eod, alot of guys see success with this protocol and you dont experience the slew of nasty sides associated with accutane.

    stuff if expensive as hell though

    Damn this is a good posting!! Please would I vets provide any info if it would be acceptable to run a real low dose like 10 or 20 mg per day whilst on cycle??? I know guys are suggesting that above but is it detrimental to the liver?? As accutane is not something to be taken lightly.

    i have been searching alot on this, and what is reccomended is to exhaust all other treatment options before you use to accutane (im not going to go through them all, they are very easy to find). and if you are forced to use accutane as the last resort, DEF start off at a low dose, be patient as it may get worse before it gets better. alot of derms are practicing the low dose method now for all but the most extreme cases of acne because the low dose has noted positive affects and comes with much less of the negative sides with the higher doses.

    but it really should be used only if absolutely needed, and you have to play it smart and accept the risk.

    So are you constantly on Accutane or what is your regiment?

    tanning works wonders for skin related issues.
