Danger? I don't really think it's dangerous. They always showed me my test results and even after taking it for six months, my results came back perfect. Even the doctor was shocked. Really funny considering I wasn't supposed to drink at all and drank like a fish. Admittedly, you're talking major side effects with minimum benefits, so it's not a recommendation for anyone. Just something I found that worked. There are probably other things that would work without the negatives.Lord Beautiful said:Accutane? I think I'll be avoiding that.Saltyk said:Well admittedly, insurance would be very nice in that situation.
Personally, nothing they did helped me for a long time, either. Then, they gave me some powerful medicine called Accutane, but it also has huge negative effects. I literally had to have a monthly blood test because it could affect your liver. Also, it's been linked to suicide. Oh, and terrible birth defects. Someone I know looked through a medical book and the medicine had a huge list of side effects. It's major stuff, but it gets the job done.
Well, it was actually a generic version. The actual medicine would have cost me something like $300 a month as my insurance wouldn't cover it.
While my inability to retain vast quantities of knowledge without understanding their underlying principles is the reason I left my university's nursing program, I do remember that accutane is the sort of thing from which I should stay away.
It's nice to know it really works, though, in spite of its danger.
