Acutane on Cycle

[NoFaith068]

I know this could have gone in the other forum, but I figured it had just as much a place being posted here. Anyways, I got a script for some acutane today (clearing up some nasty back acne from my previous cycle). Unfortunately, I had no idea how toxic the stuff was on the liver. He said for the first month my actually will just get WORSE. The actual building up and positive effects on my skin won't take place for a couple of months...this sets up the first of my problems - my next cycle is set to start mid-Jan of '07. I was told specifically by the derm. not to run any AAS while on the drug. If I wasn't prepping for a contest, i'd just say screw it and workout all natural for an extended period of time. However, this cycle is going to launch off my contest prep phase so it is necessary.

So i'd like to know if anyone out there has used acutane while on cycle, or how to do this correctly? I know many pros use this acutane and I doubt they stop cycling for five months at a time...

I want to be ready for my contest, have clear skin, and keep my internal organs healthy..

I am new with all this,but I did take accutane during my previous cycle. I had to get blood work once a month and they always said that everything looked great. I think the key would be to choose a cycle that is going to be less toxic on the liver. With that said, not all people will react the same to certain drugs. I had no problems

Starting tommorow i'm going to be running Milk Thistle @ 1000mg/ED. My next cycle is test/tren with a Dianabol jumpstart. Just wanting to keep my triglyceride count and cholestorol in check. The not drinking thing isn't that big of a deal, but no cycle is.

I would avoid any 17aa orals while administering a course of accutane treatment.

Hmm...so scrap the dianabol? Oh how I love that instant gratification, but it's hardly worth any organ problems.

What doseage of accutane did you run?

[onehundredk]

25mg/ed...i wouldnt take accutane while on juice either...

Hmm...i'm taking 40 mgs/day - this was prescribed by my derm.

The Accutane is already starting to make me feel a little queezy. Have not let it build up enough for the sides to take effect yet.

I don't think i'll be running Accutane very long. I'm going to follow through on this one month treatement (just because i've paid for it and get free blood work). I paid a total of twenty bucks for the appt. and the drugs, so it's not a big deal. I just need to get my priorities straight. I did a lot of thinking last night and reading through the forums. I decided that the sides aren't going to be worth it. This will be my third cycle and and I remember I was visibly broken out in the same areas after my first cycle, but the acne disappeared going into my second cycle. Weird huh? So, maybe the same thing will happen here.

None-the-less, i'll be starting a Benzyl Peroxide treatement across my back in the evenings. The stuff works wonders on my face, so there's no reason it wouldn't work on my jacked up back lol

Once the Accutane is out of my system i'll also begin using artifical tanning beds again in hope of drying some of this crap out.

I got an email from Dave Palumbo and he said that the accutane is okay to take with anabolics, just not orals as shrpskn said. So there's that for future reference.
