When my daughter was thirteen years old, she had acne soo bad that it would hurt just to lay her face down on a pillow at night. She religiously washed and cleaned her face three times a day. Never helped. Our family Dr prescribed her some creme for her face and that only made it red plus the bad acne now. A friend told me about a dr who could help her by prescribing her Sorcet.

When my daughter was thirteen years old, she had acne soo bad that it would hurt just to lay her face down on a pillow at night. She religiously washed and cleaned her face three times a day. Never helped. Our family Dr prescribed her some creme for her face and that only made it red plus the bad acne now. A friend told me about a dr who could help her by prescribing her Sorcet. Her first visit with him, I told him if had any medication that would help her I'd be the most thankful person in the world. I just knew there was no helping her. After about a month of using it(she had to take it twice a day for five months), you could already see clearing on her face. I was estastic!! So was she. After 3 months, her face was completely cleared!! It was a miracle. She wasn't afraid to go out anymore, she went to ballgames and with friends. She just felt normal. She is 19 years old now and still has the most beautiful complexion. It never made her sick or have any mood swings. I cannot tell you how wonderful this medication has been. The doctor had told us it was a bacteria inside her body that had to be taken care of instead of on the outside with cremes. The price was expensive, but very well worth it.

This medicine has done wonders for my skin. I used to live by the clean and clear oil pads because my skin was so oily. I have not had to use any of them since completing this medication. I do not have any more sudden, hard to treat breakouts. If i get anything, it's a barely visible bump that goes away the very next day. I have also noticed that my hair does not get oily anymore.

This medicine has done wonders for my skin. I used to live by the clean and clear oil pads because my skin was so oily. I have not had to use any of them since completing this medication. I do not have any more sudden, hard to treat breakouts. If i get anything, it's a barely visible bump that goes away the very next day. I have also noticed that my hair does not get oily anymore. I used to have to wash it sometimes twice a day, but not anymore. I did not encounter any serious side effects, although friends and family will tell you I was pretty moody while taking it. I had tried all kinds of pills and creams, but they had done nothing for me. Deciding to take Sotret was the best decision I could have made in regards to my skin condition. I am beyond pleased with my results.

I've only been taking this medication for three weeks, but I feel like I have someone else's skin. Before Sotret, my face was oilier than a pizza within an hour of being washed, no matter what products I used. My hair looked so oily I had to powder it twice a day. Even long wearing make up wore off after a few hours. I constantly looked dirty. I had acne all over my body, starting at age 9. I trie ... Show Full Comment

Even long wearing make up wore off after a few hours. I constantly looked dirty. I had acne all over my body, starting at age 9. I tried every single product line and treatment and always used them religiously and patiently, but nothing ever helped. All of this has already changed. I still have some acne on my face, but everywhere else it is gone. Just the reduction in oiliness has changed my life! I can skip a day showering! I am a normal human! My only side effect is dry lips, which is a normal skin problem regular people have, not freaky grease-monsters. I love this drug!

After a month of using it, I had to stop due to all the side effects. Constant stomach ache, nauseas, and rush all over my back..
