Side effects of Accutane
Accutane is the best acne treatment. It has several possible side effects, but they are nearly all manageable with dermatologist-recommended over-the-counter skin products.
Dry lips (Chapped Lips)
Dry lips are frustrating—they can crack, bleed, and peel. Licking them often makes things worse. Thankfully, some simple over-the-counter products can really help.
Lip Licker's Eczema (Dermatitis)
Eczema from lip licking is very common, especially in kids. Saliva dries out lips and irritates the skin, causing redness and flakes. Over-the-counter care and willpower can fix it.
Perleche (cracks at corners of mouth)
Perleche is redness and painful cracks at the corners of the mouth. It’s usually easy to treat with the right over-the-counter products.
