    haha i cant even beleive you would ask that and some1 had sed it would be ok to take both.

    bro finish you accutane wait till its completly clear. theres no rush on doign a cycle unless your bodybuilding.

    ive been on accutane for a month now and im going to wait till its all gone before doign another cycle.

    It will help the issue of acne while on your cycle.

    I am no doctor, but I will disagree with this..
    I actually believe it will make it worse..
    Accutane sort of clears out your pores..
    but the steroids will keep feeding those pores new material
    means never ending supply of acne, that will be popping everywhere..

    Suprisingly no one mentioned directly, that both accutane and steroids can do damage to your liver alone..
    so just imagine when they're combined

    Your belief is wrong. I just said it works. And it does. Accutane will dry you out in a couple of days while on cycle. So please don't spread your unfounded theory.

    Only oral steroids are hard on the liver. For those smart enough to avoid orals, the accutane will be the only stressor. And since you can use a very low maintenance dose of accutane (20-40mg/day is plenty), the liver stress is minimal.

    well my unfounded theory - comes from personal experience

    Accutane dries you yes.. but it also makes u erupt!
    and while on a cycle, there is a very good chance u'll be erupting a lot.. as your hormone levels go up and down

    Nope. It works just like when off. It pushes everything to the top of the skin just like normal, so yes you erupt. Just for the beginning. After that short time, you dry out like a cheap hooker waiting on a crack pipe.

    I can just vouch I had a 3-4 month nightmare while on both Accutane and AAS.

    N4cer and pooks, what AAS were you taking. Ive been on accutane for 2months at 40mg ED. Last week i started 80mg ED and my 1st jab of test300, im running 300mg pw. My acne is drying out loads and is starting to look loads better, whats the chances of the acne returning on cycle at 80mg ED??

    Well I ran Accutane at 20mg ED... was running 100mg TREN ED + 100mg PROP ED
    It affected me badly.. I was extremely dried out, I had acne all the way through (3-4months that i was on accutane), they would dry up fast.. but they just kept on coming also... as time went on it was getting worse and worse..
    so I ended up dropping the accutane and Tren, and continued to run PROP for another 3month, as I gradually recovered from the accutane, thats when things started to improve.

    Overall it was a very terrible experience, I've had hairloss, like never before, Extremely dehyrated made me call in sick like 10 times to work during the time period, and I also left work early like 3 times a week, while accutane was peaking.. I had nose bleeds, and I got cartlidge build up on the tip of my nose, not much but it required surgery to remove it (thats caused by scarring, from nose bleeds probably). and ACNE like never before, while on accutane, it just seemed like the steroids were feeding an open fire, and it wasn't going away.. till i Dropped the accutane.. and things stabilized

    Pooks: you didn't first do a week of higher doses? That would explain it. You gotta hit it hard then maintain.

    Well Like I mentioned in the other thread, for me going Tanning seems to do the job. I went tanning once a week on my last cycle, and I only got acne after 2-3 weeks of not tanning in the middle of it. Than when I went back to the beds, the acne started drying up and going away again.

    I think accutane is a miracle drug. My acne after 2 weeks of tren was terrible. so sore it hurt to lie down, every morning my sheets were covered in blood and pus. absolutly minging. Now 8 weeks later my skins amazing, still 8 weeks to go. Im just hoping that this test300 wont cause a flare up again. I was fine off sus before. Fingers crossed

    Damn Pooks, that sucks, but I think you're a rare case. Regarding the original question - I don't think you'll break out, especially since you've been on accutane for a few months. You might need to up the dose a little while on cycle though.

    Be careful though b/c if your doctor is taking your blood, he might see your blood values are all messed up from the gear and not refill your rx for accutane. Then you'd be screwed.
