Post Accutane Syndrome (PAS) or Post Retinoid Sexual Dysfunction (PRSD) will be used to refer to the persisting mental side effects of Isotretinoin/Accutane/Roaccutane/Claravis usage, predominantly Sexual Dysfunction. We believe a treatment for sexual dysfunction should help to alleviate the majority of other mental side effects such as anhedonia, emotional blunting/apathy, depersonalisation and depression.

These include any side effects which are not related to the mind/brain such as dry skin, hair loss, irritable bowel syndrome. These side effects are most likely unrelated to PAS and so it is important to keep them separate.

This area is for any new trials, protocol suggestions and experimentation people are considering trying. It will be best to run questions to the group before trying anything new.

For anybody who is trialling a new protocol or treatment option, please keep us updated here.

For anybody who is suffering from any persisting side effects after using Isotretinoin/Accutane/Roaccutane/Claravis, the most important thing you can do is report your side effects to the relevant authorities. It's of great importance to the community to raise awareness and support any organisations who are actively looking into these conditions.
