Answers:
It sounds like you have a pretty good grasp of it and have seriously considered the risks vs!. benefits!.
Carry a water bottle with you all the time, and make sure it is the kind with a sippy cap!.!.!.!.!.if you have to unscrew the cap every time you probably won't drink it!.
As far as diet goes!.!.!.!.well, that is going to be the same as it is for all humans!.!.!.!.try not to eat crappy foods!. As far as I know, there is no 'special' thing you have to add or subtract from your diet when on this med!.
Just thinking logically, since you really need to stay out of the sun and wear sunscreen, you may be limiting the vitamin D intake you would normally get from the sun, so maybe you should put a phone call into the pharmacist that fills your Rx and just ask if it would hurt to take a vitamin D tab along with your regular diet!.
Good luck and I really hope it works for you!
BTW- I think it was a REALLY good idea to talk with your friends about it- that was really a smart thing to do!Www@Answer-Health@Com

i was on it for 6 months!. it was hell!. it helped me very much but i'll never do it again but, you don't want to hear about that!.!.!.keep hydrated so drink plenty of water!. stay away from diuretics(beer, soda, coffee, etc)!. keep chap stick with you at all times(you're gonna need it)!. use a non oil based skin lotion after every bath and use it all over even on your face!. as for a diet, eat whatever makes you feel happy!. good luck, buddy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i was on acutane for 2 weeks and i stopped because my stomach wouldnt stop hurting!.!.!. i found out it was because i wasnt taking it after i eat so just make sure you eat before you take it!. I didnt have a special diet or anything!. Just keep chapstick with you and ur back might start hurtingWww@Answer-Health@Com

What is acutane!? An anti-depressant or a diet pill!. I figure it must be one of the two!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
