Jag hittade en länk med diverse intressant info om Roaccutan. Bl.a står det att man faktiskt kan ta hela dagsdosen vid ett och samma tillfälle. Och jag som förut oroade mig för att jag en gång tog både morgon- och kvällsdos vid samma tillfälle (eftersom jag glömt ta morgondosen). Utdrag:
Om dagsdosering:
Although most people prefer taking the capsules two or three times a day, they may be taken all at once in the morning or the evening.
Hur fungerar Roaccutan?
How does Roaccutane work? Roaccutane shrinks the oil glands (sebaceous glands) in the skin, thereby reducing oil secretion by the skin. If there is no oil around the hair follicles, there is no chance of infection of the hair follicles. Absence of infection means no acne.
Roaccutane gets rid of acne permanently in 70% of individuals taking it for 4 to 6 months. In 30%, the acne could recur, requiring further treatment with Roaccutane or another acne medicine.
Uppblossning?
Does the acne worsen before it gets better? Yes, it often does worsen about 2 weeks to a month after starting the medication. The worsening usually lasts about two weeks, after which the acne begins improving.
Träning?
Is it possible to exercise whilst on Roaccutane? Yes, there is no problem with normal routine exercise, going to the gym, playing rugby or cricket etc. However, running a marathon may sometimes pose a problem as Roaccutane may cause joint pains.
Litegrann om lågdosering!
An altarnate dosage of Roaccutane is the low dose pulsed treatment. This form of treatment is administered at a dose of 0,5mg per kg for one week in a month for three months. In view of the risks involved in pregnant women, this dose is used only in selected cases, after careful consideration.
