Accutane use: Accutane is a very dangerous drug. It is fat soluble and is highly teratogenic (causes birth defects). Its main indication is for treatment of severe cystic acne. Since it can be stored in fat it remains in the body long after you stop taking it. Take it for as short a time as you can and use at least 2 good methods of birth control while using it. You are playing with fire and can get burned bad!
