Subject: Not necessarily beauty but - roaccutane users? Advice please

Hi

I'm hoping anyone who's been on roaccutane might be able to help.
I'm now on my third course in 1.5 years as it has worked every time but then the effects have worn off about 3 months after finishing treatment. I've been ok with it every time except for the obvious side effects of dry skin, lips, achey muscles etc.

But now I am having problems with my gums and I don't know if it's linked

I have had small blisters on my shoulders/chest which seemed to be caused by accidental sun exposure last time I came off it. Now I have blisters on my gums! They seem really sensitive and weak since I have been back on roaccutane.

I am just interested if anyone else has experienced this or any other strange unlisted side effects whilst on this drug?

Thanks

B

Hey

i don't think my post will be too useful as i only had really bad dry skin as my side affect and rash like symptoms on my arm when esxposed to the sun!

I would def consult your doctor or go to a good pharmacist.

When i had my rash i didn't go the hospital as i didn't want them to take me off the medication so i would adivse a pharmacist for some help!

I've not heard of that as a side effect of roaccutane so def get it checked out!

Im pretty sure thats a side effect, have you read the leaflet that comes with them?

Im sure its receeding and sensitive gums.
