Accutane®

Accutane®, once considered a breakthrough acne treatment, was prescribed to millions of patients over the past two decades. However, Accutane® has been linked to a number of side effects, including: birth defects, miscarriages, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis. Additionally, there have been numerous reports that Accutane® use may lead to serious psychological instabilities. The FDA has forced the manufacturer of Accutane®, Hoffman-La Roche, to create warning labels that accurately list the drug's potential side effects.

Unfortunately, these disclosures come too late for thousands of Accutane® users who are only now discovering that the drug they trusted to help them overcome acne was exposing them to dangerous health consequences.
