162.16Accutane PregnancyHOTLNE::YOUNGFri Apr 25 1997 17:486
    I just ended my treatment w/ Accutane. I began it in December and was
    off of it in April. It worked wonders for me. Yes i had side effects;
    dry skin, dry lips-severely(I used Neosorin),bloody nose,nausea,
    sensitivity to light,etc. I would do it again. I was wondering how
    long you have to wait before having children?????!!!!!!???????I've
    heard anywhere from 1 month after - 5years! Big difference.

    I've read that you should wait 1 year after finishing treatment; 
    however, I suggest you ask your pharmacist.

    According to the PDR the danger is to females who are pregnant or
    become pregnant during treatment. There appears to be no danger after
    treatment has stopped.
