A member asked:
I've been off of accutane for 3 months and now im starting to break out. do i have to start taking it again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not neccessarily: Usually would like to wait 6 months before re starting, sometimes other treatments work very well after Accutane even tho failed prior. Have never seen anyone break out as bad after a course with correct dosing.
