Hello, I have been on Acutane for approx.
45 days and have recently noticed a huge
increase in my blood pressure. Yesterday
it was 150/94. Today it is 140/102. In
July of 2007 my blood pressure was 102/60.
I want to know if the acutane has any
thing to do with the increase in my blood
pressure

Yes, It has.
Have you done a lipid profile test for
checking your cholesterol and
triglycerides level since you started
using Accutane?
Have you checked your blood sugar level,
too?
