I took Accutane when I was in high school for about 6 months if I remember right. It's nasty stuff for sure. I became extremely susceptible to sun burn which was completely out of the norm for me as I already have a fairly dark complexion anyway. I also suffered from very dry/cracking lips that was very uncomfortable. All those side effects went away after I stopped taking it but about two years ago, which would have been about fifteen years after I stopped taking it, I developed Ulcerative Colitis. Since then I've wondered if the Accutane may have played a role in developing UC. I just wonder if it could take that long after taking the medication to develop something like that...
