My son was on Accutane for 6 months, quit last February. While taking Accutane he had every side effect in the book: dry skin, muscle and joint paint (rather severe), nose bleeds, and finally his hair started falling out.
When he stopped treatment he was assured that symptoms would gradually lesson and go away. All have save incapacitating joint pain.
