Yes. I was prescribed Accutane when I was 15. That's also when my gastrointestinal problems and IBS became very sensitive, and have been ever since.

Accutane can have some rather nasty GI side-effects in some people. Please make sure that you're completely tested to rule out any of the more serious side-effects.
