A member asked:
How long does it take accutane side effects to wear off if you just started using it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Adjustment : Accutane commonly causes a dry skin reaction on the arms and almost certainly dry lips -- although those skin changes typically persist through-out the 4-5 month treatment period , oftentimes properly prescribed and applied moisturizers do help.
