I’ve recently been put on the drug and I think it would ease my mind if I knew how it actually worked.

As someone who took Accutane as a happy, joyous 15yr old, and is now a 41yr old, still suffering from major depression as a direct result of this drug, all I can say is at least my liver didn’t get fried. Oh, and the endless dandruff, eczema and sensitive face skin is also a joy to live with. But hey, at least people told me that my skin looked so much clearer for a week or two.
