Boston: Prescription Medicine Benefits and Disadvantages

Boston,

Perhaps you have gone far astray and are afraid thinking that you will need to undergo an Accutane acne treatment, right? Or maybe, you are even rattled by the Accutane reviews of those people who have experienced it. However, you need not fret because before your doctor decides that you need to undertake such, he has already looked into the benefits as well as drawbacks (if any) that you will have to go through once you undergo this treatment.

The very basic and obvious benefit that you may experience when under the acne treatment is the drying up of your sebaceous glands’ oils. When this happens, the glands will not produce too much or less oil, which will obviously result to the absence of acne. But apart from the absence of acne, you will also experience some side effects like irritated eyelids and eyes, nosebleed, as well as dried nose, skin, and lips. As we have mentioned, Accutane’s prime purpose is to dry up the sebaceous gland therefore giving moisture to our skin. Thus, you should not be shocked when this happens to you.

The worst side effect that you can get from taking Accutane as an acne treatment is the threat that can result to birth defects. If you are a woman and you are undergoing an Accutane treatment, you are strictly advised not to conceive because your unborn will surely be affected. Likewise with men, they are also seriously advised not to impregnate a woman.

But the very bad side of this is in the case of women. Before you can be able to take Accutane, you will need to undergo a pregnancy test, preferably two tests to make sure that you are not pregnant. A waiver will also be given to you that will state that abortion would be your last resort if you will get pregnant. This is indeed something that you must anticipate about and be aware of.

However the best thing that you can get from Accutane is the long lasting effect of it for you not to have acne breakout. After all, a lot of teens have tried it and it was proven to be effective. So before you decide to opt for it, better examine an Accutane journal and compare your situation to those who have already tried it. Better know first the facts that go with it and decide whether to take it or not.
