My Accutane Experience
My name is Jim. I am a fellow patient, not a doctor. I'm 55 years old but I have the skin of a teenager. My skin is very oily and I have been prone to persistent acne breakouts for the past forty years. I discussed this with my dermatologist, Dr. Marc E. Grossman of White Plains, NY, and he recommended a course of low-dose Accutane (isotretinoin). I could find nothing on the internet about the use of low-dose isotretinoin by older patients. Isotretinoin is typically prescribed for people half my age as a last resort for severe, chronic acne. I have decided to document my experience and you can about read my ongoing Accutane story here.
November 7, 2011. The saga begins. This page will be updated
soon.
