I was on 40mg a day of Accutane for six months and I broke out the entire time. I had to wait until I was completely off Accutane for my skin to clear.

Hi. 20% of Accutane patients (including myself) require a second or third course. You must wait 8 weeks inbetween courses. Finish this course and see if you warrant a second course in 8 weeks time. I would not use Retin-A or benzoyl peroxide immediately after Accutane as your skin will be sensitized and more prone to side effects of topical medications.
