Had any problems? I've gotten people that the exact same thing happened to and also people really only got dried skin is all. My sister also developed anxiety problems that she now takes meds for, but she was always a little OCD. I've always been laid back till now

Took it in high school. It did what it was supposed to, but completely dried my face out. Had daily nose bleeds, ridiculously chapped lips, dry scalp. I still think I'm feeling some of the effects of it. All for acne from my football helment. It's some pretty potent stuff.

i took it back in high school and college. it cleared me up with no side effects. I have read some horror stories though.


Ditto. I read something about a group of parents who all had kids that committed suicide while they were on the drug.

Yea my acne was pretty bad since I hit puberty. Tried everything, but nothing worked. I was told the effects before I took it, but it was worse than I imagined. If things don't go exactly right I've panicked so much that I would skip meals and stay up till my body just basically collapses from exhaustion. My acne's fine, but would not touch it knowing what I know now.

I took it for a few months freshman year in high school. Had zero side effects except for the chapped lips. Worked fine for me

My little sister (sorry, no pics) took it in high school, we were both blonde-haired/olive-skinned all our lives. It changed her complexion and now she's a fair-skinned whitey.

Took it in high school. Experienced zero significant side effects. It's a great drug.
