Ive been on accutane for like a month and pimples went away for a couple of months and then i broke out again. Am I the only one? What are your experiences with this medication?

I've never used Accutane, even though it was prescribed to me, I'm not a doctor and this is not medical advice, but from what I know, what you are experiencing is normal.
