There were a few lawsuits against the maker of accutane from families of teenagers who committed suicide while on the drug. It is definitely something to watch out for and the prescribing doctor should monitor the patient closely to determine any occurrence of that.
Do you remember the teenage boy several years ago that flew a stolen plan into a building in Tampa and they blammed it on the accutane.

I BET YOUR DOCTOR WILL MAKE YOU COME IN TO GET BLOOD TESTS, PREGO TESTS, AND THE "TALK" BEFORE YOU GET ON IT! The Gov. controls it and quite frankly you have to get the tests done before going on it. It is a great drug and does work....but if you happened to get prego, it is extremely DANGEROUS! LOOK AT THE PICTURESsad.gif

Hello everyone. Well, I am on day 3 of accutane. I did NOT have to get any blood or pregnancy tests before I got my prescription. I am going to the dr next month to get him to check everything out though. I have had my IUD in for 2 years now and am also on the pill (Diane-35 -- an acne medication) so that's my 2 forms of contraceptive. So far no side effects, but it is only day 3. Like I said, my acne is not bad, but I want to get to the point where I do not have to wear cover up (to cover those ugly red spots!). Because I have been looking into accutane for 7 years now, I think the waiting is over so I'm glad I started it this far before my wedding. I will keep you posted on my progress. I know the side effects can be terrible. I am going to be taking fish oil (for joints and hair), vitamin c (immunity), and there's another supplement I'm going to take that is recommended for mental clarity (to combat any concentration issues I may get). So, we'll see how it goes! I guess the initial breakout should arrive around week 1-2 so hopefully it's not too bad :)

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
