What happens if you take a double dose of acutanne?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible side effect: Accutane is for acne and has some serious side effects, liver toxicity, pancreatitis, vasculitis, steven-johnson syndrome, psychosis, aggressive behavior, suicidality, visual problems to name a few. Taking twice the dose makes you more likely to experience these side effects. Suggest you check with your pcp for simple cmp and try to never repeat double dosing again.
