acutane

I am fed up at 32 with acne!  I have been to dermatologists galore.  Tried every over the counter and prescript. creme and antibiotics.  My last derm. said that she was hesitant to put me on acutane because I am on coumadin a blood thinner and it may interfere.  I am desparate though.  I can't take it anymore!  Any advice?

nothing worked for my severe acne except accutane. I took it for 5 months and it caused lots of bad side effects such as dry skin etc but it paid off. I was on antidepressants at that time.

However, recently there has been news around that acutane causes suicidalness.

So coumadin and suicide vs. shot at acne cure? I wouldnt go for it.
