AMNESTEEM  (ISOTRETINOIN):  This medication is used to treat severe cystic acne (also known as nodular acne) that has not responded to other treatment (e.g., benzoyl peroxide or clindamycin applied to the skin or tetracycline or minocycline taken by mouth). It belongs to a class of drugs known as retinoids. It works by decreasing facial oil (sebum) production. High amounts of sebum can lead to severe acne. If left untreated, severe acne may cause permanent scarring.   FDA Approval Date: 2002-11-08 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 1  acne; no acne warrants CHEMO! This medication has the capacity to destroy your entire life in ways that may be impossible for people to imagine. It is cytotoxic and kills cells throughout your body; not just your sebaceous glands! Don't listen to dermatologists if they tell you that the drug selectively targets your oil glands and not the rest of the body, THAT'S A LIE!!! I am off isotretinoin for 4 years and my entire body is destroyed permanently head to toe: severe tendon pain, cracking and snapping in my joints, weakness, muscle damage, inability to walk for more than 30 minutes, digestive problems, painfully dry eyes that require an entire bottle of eye drops every few days, severe hair loss, painful menstruation, hormone problems, feeling like my brain and memory has been irreversibly damaged, and this is from 7 WEEKS OF A LOW DOSE. Oh, and you know the great thing about this horrible poison - the terrible permanent effects started only a few months AFTER stopping the drug. I quit it early because my liver e IF YOU'RE SUFFERING YEARS LATER, AFTER STOPPING ACCUTANE AND CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY....IT'S PROBABLY THE ACCUTANE!!! I thought that side effects, if they hit you, would happen while you're on the drug. Wrong! So many people I know had their bodies PERMANENTLY DESTROYED FOREVER weeks, months, or years after stopping it...even if you feel TOTALLY FINE while on it, just wait for the nightmare to develop. It's a matter of time until your body starts falling apart, after you take this absolutely vile human poison F 24 7 weeks
