Hi.
It is normal to have a temporary worsening of acne at the start of Accutane treatment. This is because unseen pimples come to the surface. I know it is frustrating, but side effects are a sign your medicine is working.
It is difficult to say how long this will last, each patient is different. But stick with it, Accutane is your best hope of a long term remission from acne. Accutane virtually always results in total or excellent skin clearance after 16 weeks. Many people see a great improvement in their skin before this, but you must keep taking the tablets for a full course to minimise the risk of relapse.
