What do you think about acne caused by anti-depressents? Parnate seems to have greatly aggravated my depression. I've run the gamut of most acne meds and am thinking about gambling with Accutane again. I took it once about 14 years ago and it worked great. I have long-term depression since I was around 8 - about 26 years now. I'm getting some relief from my current med, but I'd like to get rid of the severe acne.
Do you think Accutane could still cause depression if I've taken it before with no ill effect? What are the general odds of a depressive episode?
Thanks,
Jessica
