marc hi, can you define this

'pushed to hard'


is it refering to pushing triggers, im interested how you went from remission to flushing again.

maybe he was constipated and pushing just that little bit harder caused a flush :P

what kind of dose are you on man? i've read that 10mg is ok for most people and doesn't cause redness whilst people on higher doses (e.g for acne) frequently get redness. Maybe you could try a lower dose?

It's a good sign that accutane has given you remission though! Maybe you just need to fine tune dosage. 8) Did you see improvement in skin tone also as well as redness and flushing?

If you are getting remissions from accutane then that is incredible. I wouldn't stop taking it. But if your taking it for rosacea I only take 2 10mg pills a week and it seems to do its job without drying the hell outta my lips and face, not to mention my hair.

Why don't you give 10mg a go? :wink:

I mean 10mg a day, i haven't started the course yet but can't wait.

It's great that you got into remission from accutane, cosmetic intolerance sucks though!! Limits everything so much.

Good luck anyways!!
