Accutane dangers

Accutane is a remarkably effective drug for acne but also something that has way too many dangerous side effects. Risks of Accutane have been highlighted over the years and calls for recall made but it continues to be on the market with additional warnings.

Yet another study shows that the medication may actually hurt the heart and the liver. So women suffering from adult acne have very little choice but to take the drug but stay in close contact with their physician so that any problems can be dealt with immediately. And of course, at least two types of birth control should be used to eliminate any possibility of pregnancy.
