Accutane and Dry Skin
When people take a prescription drug, they expect the medication to improve or cure their condition. Unfortunately, many prescription drugs have harmful side effects that can drastically change your life. In recent years, there have been many long term side effects linked to the anti-acne drug Accutane. Although this drug is one of the most effective ways to get rid of acne, it has many side effects that can affect various aspects of your health and life.

Dealing with Dry Skin
While there are many serious side effects associated with Accutane, including Crohn’s disease and other inflammatory bowel diseases, there are also some other side effects that could be damaging. One of these is extreme dry skin. To take care of dry skin, be sure to:
- Get a topical lotion from your dermatologist and use daily
- Make sure to wear sunscreen daily on face and neck to protect from the sun’s harmful rays
- Stay hydrated throughout the day by drinking plenty of water
- Dry skin can be very irritating and may even lead to harmful skin infections.
