Accutane

Posted By Todd  on August 21, 1998 at 16:32:17:







I am a 25-year-old male who took a course of accutane about 7 years ago with numerous side effects.  The results were remarkable however.  My acne cleared up completely.  REcently, my acne is returning and I would like to take another course of accutane.  But I would like to know what the known effects of accutane are on the liver.  My grandfather died of liver cancer, and I was a heavy drinker in college.  I no longer drink, but my family history of liver cancer concerns me, although i really would like to go on this medication again.  Can you please inform me on the risks to your liver?
Thank you.
