xfactor and acutane

[Matt5387]

hey guys, im going to be taking acutane cuse my acne has always been bad. xfactor has increased my breakouts alil bit so i was wondering if acutane will negate the effects of xfactor because it says anti-inflammatorys do so. i dont know much about acutane so idk if it is considered an anti-inflammatory or not. id appreciate any help if you guys know. thanks

what about tetracyline since where on the topic. But I dont think accutane is anti-inflammatory.

not sure, i tried that and it didnt do anything for me. my acne isnt horrible, i just get zits that last forever. they withstand antibiotics, topicals, astringent, everything. so gotta go with accutane.

Why anyone would want to take Accutane is beyond me. Look at the side effects!

i know quite a few people that have taken it and it has worked wonders for them. my acne bothers me alot and ive tried tons of antibiotics and nothing has helped. im also trying to pursue modeling so i gotta get rid of the zits first. you need to take monthly bloodtests while on it so they could monitor it and make sure everything is ok.

I took it when I was in high school and it cleared me up.. but about six months after I stopped taking it, it all came back.
