Hi all, 

it's been now 15 days that i'm taking accutane 10mg, 2xdaily and i don't feel any improvement as i still get some pimples and i have this big "thing" i don't know how to call it, but its like you know, a big pimple of oil and after 15 days now it's not going ! is there any problem ?

can you guys tell me why my skin is becoming like this, exceptthe dry lips that i'm dealing with it. 

is there any foods to avoid while taking accutane ?

my first week was bad, i had initial breakout and many pimples poped out and were painfuly, but now i get less than before anyway.

i'll appreciate your responses and may god get me rid of this acne.
