NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo

you swallow them


i did 6 months of them through a derm.. trust me on this one

[kizer_soce]

a derm recommended ** accutane?

Never heard of accutane being chewed before . It should just be swallowed.

when i was younger i had cystic acne.. i tried all the creams/pills she prescribed but nothing worked, so she put me on accutane (a last resort drug)

He is not talking about prescription accutane fellas he is talking about an underground lab's in which the manufacturer states it is to be chewed.

[Steve]

yes im talking about it being made underground. Il chew them. thanks for all your replies

What's the difference if you chew it or swallow it? It still ends up in one place; your stomach. I don't see the purpose in chewing it regardless of where it's made.

EYEPEE accutane did shit all for me, i took it for three month and didnt even get dryed lips, which i usually get after the first week of the real stuff. sorry bro i dont mean to damper, but if you goine to use it for prevention purposes it wont do much. let alone trying to clear up on it

[skiboy]

i had it prescribed, swallow it
peace

I used accutane, its like gel inside, so i dont think you should chew it.

they say its a last resort drug, but i went to the docs, he asked me what i wanted, i said accutane, done and done!

[goldenFloyd]

eyepee makes a tab. real companies like roche make caps. therein lies the difference.

[goldenFloyd]

gelcaps i believe, although I never chewed mine.

Ok ive done 2 cycles of Accutane as followed by a dermatologist,

First time i was on 80mgs a day, this was back in 96. I swallowed the pills. Second cycle, was about a year ago, I did it for about 2 months on 40mgs with noticible results, but Id still break out whenever i was under very high stress. My doctor said the drug was probably not being completely absorbed, and said from now on to chew them, and that Id defintiely see the side effects (which are indicative of the shit working).

I went ahead an chewed them for the next 2 months and lo and behold it kicked the shit out of the zits. The only time ive broken out since then, is once when I did a cycle of PH's (no flames!) where I was taking about 1000mg of 4AD, 1200mg of Nor-Diol, 500mg of 1,4 Andro and 900mg of 1-AD PER DAY. The break out cleared out about 2 weeks after I quit the cycle. It never got THAT bad, but it was a definite break out.

Bottom line is, chewing will cause more of the drug to be absorbed. THis may or may not be a good thing, just depends on how much accutane you really need. Its not a good idea to self medicate accutane, especially ** accutane. Id go see a dermatologist!
