Accutane.

[gixxerboy1]

Accutane is typically prescribed for four months. Typical dosage for an adult male is 20mg alternated with 40mg every-other-day. Please do yourself a favor and click the link I provided above to another thread about acne and steroids. If you read it, you probably won't even have to consider taking Accutane. Althought I stated earlier that the sides were not as horrible as many people make them out to be, Accutane should be considered (and is in the medical community) a last-resort for treating acne. Unless you have severe cyctic acne, or recalcitrant acne that has responded to nothing else (including the many excellent prescription acne product, both topical creams and antibiotics), taking Accutane is really not necessary.

i've never seen that dose for an adult prescribed. I was prescribed it when i was younger and my wife was on it a few years ago.

You're right. The usual dosing is 40mg per day, or even higher. 0.5-1.0mg per kilo is the generally accepted dosage. So my recommendation of 20mg alternated with 40mg every other day is based on my own experience when I was 18 and only weighed 140.

Here are some reputed medical sites where the dosing information backs up my statement. There are plenty more if you do a Google search:
