Can Accutane make you lose hair?

Anyone who knows Accutane, knows that there are side-effects.

However, I heard that one of them, is that it makes you lose your hair. Is that true?

See, I'm aware of most of the side-effects of Accutane, and I have no problem with that. However, if that one certain condition is true, well than I'm not gonna bother with Accutane.

So, does anyone have any conclusive information or experience about this matter?

I just finished my last two pills of Accutane yesterday! (I must say that I am thrilled.) To answer your question: the percentage of patients who experience hair loss is very VERY low. If you happen to be one of them, the hair will return to it's pre-Accutane state, to my knowledge. I frequent the website http://acne.org. It has a great, informative messageboard with many people who are on Accutane! I HIGHLY recommend this drug--it's the best decision I've ever made.

I took Accutane back in the early 80s. Although its thinned some(I believe due to aging), I still have a full head of hair. I`d also like to say I`m happy that Accutane was available to treat my horrible acne. BTW, my skin is STILL clear!
