I have tried many acne medications and have had the most success with smg/tmz which is a sulfa pill. I have never had clear skin, with any medication, but I was hoping to find that with Accutane.
That depends on how long your treatment period is and on you personally. My treatment period was 6 months and at 2 months I had dry, scaly skin, I was constantly thirsty, my lips were so cracked I could barely open my mouth wide enough to fit a spoon in, and I still had acne almost as bad as when I started. The effects of Accutane are cumulative, so you should see your skin slowly get better over the course of your treatment. Since the effects are gradual, you may not even notice them in the beginning.
Accutane affects some people more than others. Even after one treatment cycle is completed (usually 4-6 months), many people have to go back for a second treatment (another 4-6 months). Even once you finish with Accutane, you’ll probably still get the occasional zit, just like people who have never had acne do.
Different acne treatments work differently for different people
What the skin needs is a product that clears pores and kills bacteria, thus preventing hair follicles from clogging and turning into pimples. This is what you should be looking for if you want to get rid of those ugly pimples.
Before trying any treatment, I suggest you read this informational source that listed the most effective acne treatments available:
