Is it normal to get an initial breakout after starting Accutane?

Yes, it is common to experience an initial breakout on Accutane.

Prepare yourself for a significant acne flare up as it is usual for a patient’s skin to get worse before it gets better during Accutane treatment. The week you experience the dreaded breakout can vary from person to person, but it is usually within the first 10 weeks of treatment.

Someone people say that the initial breakout can be the worst acne breakout they have ever had. During this initial breakout it is easy to lose faith and contemplate quitting Accutane. Stay strong, going on Accutane is a rocky ride and you need to take the lows with the highs.

    Very True, I am on Day 9 and have had the Initial Breakout for about 3 days now. Its Horrible and even painful, definitly the worst I have had.

    But I will just have to tough it out and hopefully I will start seeing improvements.
