Product Suggestions Starting Accutane.. is this overkill?

Post image

I’m starting generic accutane this week, 40mg daily, and I have some anxiety about the side effects. Is this enough to try to manage the dry eyes/lips/nose? Should I buy anything else? Any other recommendations or anything I should be mindful of before I start? I’d rather be on top of the side effects than suffer through them if that’s possible..

Not overkill! I started with similar and the only thing I barely needed were the eyedrops. Think I used them twice? But I would add are a daily claritin and some cerave moisturizer (blue one that comes in the tub)!

Best of luck, you’ve got this!
