Mineral deficiency?: Accutane can cause poor appetite and fatigue; it's a powerful drug. There are less dangerous treatments for acne. Vegetarians often become deficient in zinc and low zinc can cause low appetite. Try taking a quality multivitamin and perhaps extra zinc as zinc picolinate. But please see a doctor for an evaluation as there are many possible causes for your symptoms such as anemia or parasites.
